Ginger, my family and I felt defeated when I was not same blood type as siblings or my mother , my father had died when I was a child. However the kindness of another family who chose to donate their sons organs saved my life and several others also needing the "gift of life" I am certainly thankful.
dialysis was a life saver as well while I waited on the list.

@ellakoch Ella, my husband had a deceased donor for his kidney October 2016. He was on PD dialysis for 5.5 years prior to that. Thanks to the generosity of a grieving family, he has been able to continue his volunteer work, see his grandchildren grow up, and enjoy retirement.
