Fuck, fuck... To be saved by your own child's donated organ at the cost of their life. I can't imagine the toll that would take her mind.
Doing IRL monkey's paw shit.
That'd be such a bullshit monkey paw. There's nothing perverse about wishing for your health. There's no moral where you go "oh man, I guess I shouldn't have cared about my health." It's just pure "well fuck you, monkey"
In the original story, the protagonist wishes for $200k. Moments later, he gets a knock at the door from the life insurance company that insured his father for $200k.
This follows a similar arc.
