@contentandwell I wrote a letter to my donor's family just before Christmas. I haven't heard back get but I think of my donor all the time. I don't know the age, sex, or cirumstances of death. I only hope that they were able to understand my depth if gratitude.

@gaylea1 it was quite a while before I heard back from my donor’s parents, I think almost a year. When they did respond they were very forthcoming with describing their daughter and signed their names. Then there was a lot about her in the news and I recognized the name immediately. The February issue of Reader’s Digest had her story in it, condensed from a long article that had been in the Boston Globe Sunday newspaper magazine a while ago.
