ABSTRACT
[Organ donation has] no other limit than incompatibility of blood types (without sexual or ethnic limits, my heart could be the heart of a black woman). . . . Quickly, however, the other as stranger may become manifest: not woman, or black, or youth, or Basque, but the immunitary other, the irreplaceable other who has nonetheless been replaced. It is called rejection: my immune system rejects that of the other.
