Risking your own life for a complete stranger is a tough decision at any age. And at the age of 20, it is even more amazing. However, that’s exactly what Sam Nagy has just done. And he has become the youngest ever organ donor(器官捐献者)in Britain.
Mr Nagy had an operation to remove one of his kidneys, which went to a complete stranger. Sam made the brave decision, though his mother expressed her concern. “I’m extremely proud of him, but part of me thinks: at what point in your life as a young man do you wake up and think that this is what you want to do?” However, she did admit that if her son needed a kidney, she would hope there was somebody like Sam who was willing to donate one.
Some people thought he was too young to donate and should wait a while. “By the time I had done all the research, I thought I am quite mature for my age. If there are people on the waiting list who are in quite a bad way, what is the reason for a few years?” When he applied to become a donor, doctors did not express concern about his age.
Mr Nagy’s inspiration behind his decision came from the voluntary work for a charity(慈善机构). After having a bad day from seeing children suffering from abuse(虐待)and people living in bad conditions, he decided there must be something he could do to help.
On a blog which he writes --- My Journey to Save A Life --- he said, “I’m just an average person, no amazing talents, no special abilities, just a motive to help.”

A. He was a young man who made decisions for others.
