In a Last Call a while back, I posted about two sisters who were released from jail for an $11 robbery on the condition that one sister donate a kidney to her sister. It's a pretty cool story, click here to refresh your memory.
MSNBC has updated the story, explaining that the sisters have to lose a combined 160 pounds and one sister must quit smoking before they will be considered as candidates for the surgery. The judge doesn't seem to be concerned. Even though he gave a year's deadline for the transplant, he acknowledges this is a medical call and discussion of a return to jail is "purely hypothetical" for the sisters. Meanwhile, the two women are by all accounts turning their life around and appreciating the second chance they've been given. Illness has hindered one sister, but at least they are together, and with family.
All at once, now. Awwwww.
