Divorcing man wants kidney back
This story made headlines last week:
Richard Batista can live with his broken heart. He just can’t bear his cheating wife living with his healthy kidney.
The Long Island doctor wants the one-time love of his life to pay $1.5 million for the organ he bestowed on her eight years ago in a gift meant to save her life and their foundering marriage.
Dude, you have two and she gets half of everything, right? Oops, not so fast:
But divorce lawyers say a donated organ is not a marital asset to be divided.
Well, now there are counter claims from the wife!
Dawnell Batista says Richard Batista was so obsessed with the idea that she was cheating on him that he went so far as to go through her underwear seeking signs she’d been with another man.
That’s it? I thought she might sue for her old uterus back.
