Bobby almost died after buying a kidney transplant abroad ... but he's thinking of doing the same again after another 7 years on donor waiting list OUR OPT FOR LIFE CAMPAIGN WANTS TO CHANGE THE LAW SO MORE SCOTS GET THE CHANCE FOR LIFE
A restaurateur who almost died after buying a kidney transplant abroad has backed the Evening Times' campaign to launch an 'opt out' system of organ donation in Scotland.
Bobby Singh, 46, from Glasgow, believes an opt-out policy – where the default position is that everyone is a donor – would vastly increase his chances of receiving the life-saving kidney transplant he needs.
The father-of-three made the "desperate" decision to pay £22,000 for a transplant in Pakistan in 2005 after being on the register for five years.
