Man celebrates kidney donated by his mother turning 100

Original: Celebrating the 100th birthday of the kidney donated to him as a teenager

A man from Webster, New York, is marking an unusual milestone: the kidney his mother donated to him when he was a teenager has turned 100 years old. The organ, transplanted decades ago, continues to function well, and the story has drawn attention as a heartwarming example of the long-term success of living-donor transplants and a son's tribute to his mother's gift.

Why now: A transplant lasting so long, and a family celebrating the donor's organ as a birthday, is a rare and moving story.
