Lynn Davis: My second chance at life!

I always like to say I am what hope looks like!

I wanted to make him comfortable, to let him know he had nothing to worry about. I am the donor.

I hope that our story inspires donors and gives hope to people needing a transplant.

Today, I am doing amazingly well. My donor liver feels like I have a new engine inside me and I am forever grateful.

I became a widow at age twenty-eight. My first husband, Matt, collapsed one evening from what we later discovered was a ruptured brain aneurysm.

January 2021, the beginning of a new year as well as a new chance at life.
