Climbing to the roof of the world, a team of living donors finds strength in each other
On March 3, a team of living donors, friends and family took their first steps on a journey to the top of the world.
Sara Miller: Launching a student movement after organ donation
On the worst day of my life, my sister was able to save a life by donating her liver to a special education teacher named Trish.
Karen Baytch: A new beginning
Every day I thank my anonymous donor, who happened to be the same age of one of my daughters, to giving me this most amazing gift.
Katherine Rudolph: A daughter’s gift of love and life to her father
The short-term pain after surgery was worth the joy I have in my heart that my father is alive, recovering and has a healthy future.
Becky Wiskur: Baseball, faith, and friendship
I donated 61% of my liver to Ben on 1/9/2023. Baseball is much more than a game. It brought us to this journey that not only saved Ben’s life, but also forever changed mine for the better.
Shannon Palmatier: Camden’s Journey
Almost six months post transplant, Camden is back to school and healthier than ever.
Nicole Sharkey: Time is spelled L.O.V.E
Because of organ donation, we have more time to love are sweet Lillian. Time with her is something we will always cherish.
Robin: Extremely grateful
I am thankful for my gift of life.
Shawn Spicer: The greatest gift from a special someone up above
From time to time, look up and thank the person who made it possible. And I wanted to say how proud her family must be of her, knowing how many lives she impacted.
Thomas Burke: Determination
Very little of my success has been attributable to myself, as I did nothing but follow the directions of my transplant team.
Jerry Cahill: To the Brink and back after lung, liver, and kidney transplants
A young man’s life allowed me to continue mine. How could I do anything but honor his kindness and love by living my life to the fullest?
Jaclyn Smith: I woke up in another world
There’s so much more to my story and I’d love to one day try to bring awareness to ICU delirium and how serious it can be.
