Like most college students, Andrew Dinsdale had some time off last week. But unlike most college students, he spent part of that time giving one of his kidneys to a stranger.
While a surgeon worked on Andrew, another stranger in the same building was giving a kidney to Andrew's dad, Tom Dinsdale, 72, of Reinbeck…
On Tuesday, the Dinsdales took part in a 10-person kidney chain that began at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., and stretched all the way to Scottsdale, Ariz.
