Comment on I'd believe any of them.

He travelled to India when he was a young adult and he got into Buddhism. I think all of that stuff inspired him to try things which are unconventional in western countries.
As for what you mentioned about jumping to the front of a transplant queue, yes that’s obviously selfish and wrong, if he did indeed do that.

He used his wealth to be able to get a liver from Tennessee despite being from California because his wealth let him sign up to every list since he could be anywhere at a moments notice. Any article you see will defend the move because He WaS tHe SiCkEsT pErSoN oN tHe LiSt, which completely papers over the fact that his wealth let his health status take a liver from someone more deserving who didn’t piss away their chance at a healthy prognosis to self treat with fruit instead of listening to real medical professionals.
Bottom line in my mind is that he stole that liver from someone who could have used actually used it.
