    Kidney discovery

    ■ Hi HIW,

    My grandson Solomon, who is nine years old, was reading your article to me about the 38-year-old man who has three kidneys. According to the article only 100 people are reported to have this condition. Then I remember my 64-year-old sister has the same condition. He called her and excitedly told her how unusual she was and read the article to her. He loves reading, and How It Works is just perfect for young, thirsty minds. Pam Johnson
