The Gift that Heals is a wonderfully compiled book of stories of those who have received a transplant. Written by Reg Green, a father who's commitment to his son's tragic death will inspire the reader and help people understand the need that is out there for organ donation.
None of us like to think about the possibility of death let alone giving ourselves away so to speak. But one person can change so many lives.
101,000 people wait everyday for the gift of life...A gift that will change their lives forever.
In todays world with all our new technology, we are better prepared and informed about organ and tissue donation. Please take a moment and think about your own life and the lives of others. We are here to make a difference in the world. Consider being any organ donor.
My own story is about receiving a kidney from a live donor, my son. In "Waiting to Die, Wanting to Live" the story of a dying mother and a drug addicted son comes together and concludes with the fact that we saved each other. He saved me with his kidney, I saved him because he had to clean himself up to give me the gift of life.
He remains sober, I am still here writing my story and feeling blessed everyday that I have been given more time.
Read the heartwarming and sometimes gut wrenching stories that will change the way you may look at organ donation. Click on my Valuable Resource... The Gift that Heals and take a look at the story of Nicholas and the unselfish sacrifice made by a loving and giving father and his family.
