Sisters Who Were Released From Prison For Kidney Transplant Need To Lose 160 Lbs And Quit Smoking Newports

Uhhh oh…the “kidney sisters” have a little hiccup in their quest for organ transplant action: There’s a “complication” in the case of Mississippi ex-convicts sisters Jamie and Gladys Scott, who won their release from life prison terms on the grounds that one sister would give the other a kidney. The planned organ transplant apparently cannot take place until Jamie quits smoking and they lose a combined 160 pounds. The sisters had served 16 years of their life sentences for a robbery when they were released on Jan. 7. They moved to Pensacola, Fla. Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour set a condition of their freedom that Gladys give a kidney to Jamie, who suffers from kidney failure. Gladys had volunteered to do so. Jamie Scott said Wednesday that a doctor said she has to lose 100 pounds to receive the transplant. She said would-be donor Gladys must lose 60 pounds and stop smoking. Barbour hasn’t said whether he’ll send the sisters back to prison if the transplant doesn’t happen. This will be a good look for them as it’s pointless to be free and your a$s is unhealthy…they both need to get on that “Aretha Franklin” diet STAT! Source
