@shepn7 The people who donated to your second chance at life, did so knowingly. For decades I have been registered as a donor, and hope that when I no longer need this physical body, parts will be able to help another person. You can wonder about what the donor's life would have been like, what milestones they will not experience themselves, and vow to yourself to make a difference, do something in their honor.
Would you try thinking along those lines and tell me how that makes you feel?
