A Real Sporting Sacrifice
Two-time national Motocross champion Adrienne Cooper has, at the age of just 27, had her career ended after losing a kidney. However, the loss of that kidney was deliberate. The American made a conscious decision to gift the organ to 10-year-old Logan Carson, saving his life but ending her career.
