Carla furious as Sarah persuades Adam to not be Peter’s kidney donor
Carla Connor is left utterly furious as she discovers that Sarah Platt persuaded Adam not to be Peter’s kidney donor.
Peter is in desperate need of a liver transplant as his alcoholism takes its toll on his body, and Adam was found to be a match.
But a worried Sarah begs him to reconsider donating his liver as she suggests that he is only doing it out of guilt after he slept with Carla, which was considered a catalyst for Peter’s drinking downfall.
A living liver transplant is possible if the person donating is fit and healthy, with a portion of their liver implanted into the recipient. The liver cells then regenerate in both the donor and recipient until it has regrown to almost its original size.
Adam is conflicted but he later tells Sarah that he has taken his name off the donor list and is worried about how he will tell Peter the news.
Towards the end of the week, however, Adam finally breaks the news that he is no longer willing to be a donor, leaving Carla absolutely gutted.
But she’s furious when she discovers that Sarah was the one who encouraged him not to go through with it and accuses Sarah of doing so as a way to get back at her for sleeping with Adam…
*Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV
