He covers that in the post. If you donate your kidney, you can nominate up to 5 people to be first in line if they (or you) ever need a transplant.

Given compatibility concerns, it's probably safer for your family member for you to donate than not.

If you donate a kidney knowing that if something goes wrong to the one you have left you can skip the queue of people who have been suffering potentially longer than you have with end stage renal failure, is your donation truely an altruistic one?
