My one non-sports-related assignment so far this week was a sad one. Brian Martindale, who donated a kidney to 10 year-old Jessica Schwerin, is facing some serious financial trouble after having medical complications following the transplant surgery almost a month ago. I went with a reporter to take Brian's picture while he was being interviewed, and to see how broken and ashamed he was was heartbreaking. A benefit is being planned for Brian, and locals are really stepping up to donate, so hopefully things will turnaround for him. I can't imagine anyone who deserves it more than him.
