Thank you Chris. And thanks to you and your family for making that decision for the good of patients like me. I don’t know very much about my donor, but I would not be alive but for them. When I was waiting for transplant those nearly 2 years - suspended between life and death - I was haunted by the realization that someone’s life had to end in order for me to live. Every one of my transplant friends suffers from this. But a chaplain at Mayo helped to set me straight. He said that life is like a relay race, and that my donor’s purpose here on Earth was fulfilled - and that they were handing me what I needed to fulfill my purpose - whatever it may be. I work everyday to honor my donor and find my purpose. This was one of the reasons why I started volunteering on the transplant floor and why I take every opportunity to act as an advocate for organ donation. That work has become a part of my purpose here on Earth.💕
