JanSParticipantyet another success story in the news…
hopefully, those who were not matches will still consider donating for someone else, as the need is great…

2 Much WhineParticipantMike, I hope that wasn’t directed at me (and suspect it wasn’t) but will take my lumps if it was. I have been an organ donor for 30 years – not because I could make a profit or leave an inheritance but because it is the right thing to do. Sadly, as time marches on I think fewer and fewer of my vital organs will be useful as they’ve gone from Porsche to Pinto. . . . .but I would love nothing more to give the gift of life and leave that as a lasting legacy.

jwwsParticipantJanS,
Saw the K5 story and thought of you. Holding good thoughts that you too receive a special Holiday gift!

JanSParticipantjwws…that would truly be a great gift…but realistically, I’ve only been on the transplant list since August. Unless someone specifically names me as the recipient, all bets are off. I understand that, and am glad that others are getting theirs, too.

JanSParticipantI am faced with the fact that I have very high antibodies, and it could be years to find someone who is compatible. Then you read something like this, and you have hope..
