‘The Gosling Effect’ isn’t about Ryan, the Canadian actor.
It’s about the power of altruism, and the impact of Kevin Gosling, an ordinary Canadian who made a decision to make an anonymous donation of a part of his liver. His persistence changed the health care system and the way unrelated organ donors are viewed.
He is however an uncle to Ryan, in the very large Gosling extended family.
A comprehensive feature from The Ottawa Citizen reports on the transformative impact of Kevin Gosling and the others donors for whom he cleared the path.
‘A total of 2,936 organ transplants were performed in Canada in 2022. Eighty per cent of those transplants used deceased donor organs and 20 per cent used living donor organs. Fifty-two per cent of those living donors were related to the recipient. Forty-eight per cent were unrelated. . .
. . . And yet, outside of Canada, there is still a lack of understanding of how someone can be willing to give part of their organ to a complete stranger.
Dr. Nazia Selzner, who is the medical director of the live donor liver transplantation program at UHN, said she is frequently asked when he travels the world: “What is wrong with these people that they want to help someone else and go through a major surgery?”’

Organ Transplant Patients Can Die When Donors Aren't Screened for This Parasitic Disease
==Bob Naedele died after receiving a heart from a donor with Chagas disease.
His death could have been prevented if the donor had been tested. The group that governs U.S. transplant policies is considering mandatory screening of at-risk donors.
