This weekend, yet another heart family had to say goodbye to their sweet child. Yet, in the midst of all their sadness and grief, they kept in mind that they would be able to help others by donating their child's organs to help save other lives.
So, in following their example, make sure that you have selected on your license registration that you want to be an organ donor. Also make sure that you let your immediate family know your intentions as well so that God forbid if the time comes they can make sure that your wishes come to fruition.
Sorry, I know that's a little heavy to start a Monday, but I look at it like this: someday in the not too distant future Olivia may need a new heart and her second chance at life will only come from another family making a generous decision of their own to share their loved one with others.
Give the Gift of Life, Become an Organ Donor
This is so true...I have always checked the box to be an organ donor and if anything were to happen to me or any of my kids, I would definitely be donating their organs. It is by far the greatest gift you could ever give.
