Just think of the life this kid would have had, if the donor stayed around? His situation could have...It WOULD have been much worse.
He should be relieved and count himself lucky. Also he shouldn't harbor any ill-will toward the donor...Not harboring any more emotion than he would a stranger-because that is what the donor is, a stranger. The donor should simply be forgotten.
Then, it would be nice if he pulled both his parents close, first thanking his father. This is a man to be admired, as well as emulated. His mother and father must have the truest of friendships. Even so, most men would not have swallowed their pride, and offered their life in such a manner.
Following, he should thank his mother. How many women would have been keen to marrying a friend, and giving it a go? Had it gone poorly, she could have lost what sounds like her closest friend. She sounds like a woman gifted with a lot of trust and determination.
