Liver
Stories of hope
#LivingItForward
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.
Rita Woodward: Gratitude angel
Each day, I think about my angel donor and family. I am alive because they made a decision in their time of unbearable grief.
Bob Scozzafava: Celebrating my first liver-transplant anniversary
My goal is to share my story with others to get more people to register as donors and also help boost the morale of those on the waiting list for transplant.
Bex Hall: The letter I wrote to a stranger
A little over a year after my transplant, I felt like I finally had something more than the words “thank you” to convey, so I wrote and mailed the donor’s family a letter with my condolences and gratitude.
Donnie Field Senior: My story
From where I felt months ago to how I feel today is a 100% turn around.
