Now - no matter what kind of dialysis he is on, we do not know what will happen come contest day, and that is the problem. So Don Long does not have kidneys, but what about all of the other problems that may occur as he gets nearer to contest day. Will the doctor sign off on that? Will the doctor assume all liability that if anything happens to Don, he is responsible for the hospital, doctor, and any other bill.
Now let's say the IFBB lets him compete, and something happens. Guess what - everybody will be saying that the IFBB was foolish enough to let him compete, especially if he falls. If nothing happens, thank god. But if something unexpectedly happens with someone with no kidney, can you imagine how that will look?
Or the headlines will be on this board...
Could not agree more. No Dr. in their right mind would sign such a thing.
I still can't understand why ANYONE in Don's situation would attempt a competitive comeback. It's beyond me...........
