Kidney donation

[MMcc]

Last Thursday my daughter donated a kidney at Northwestern Hospital in Chicago.:clap: She started what was called a donor chain where a non-family member donates a kidney and the recipient finds a donor to also donate and so forth. This was a 3 person chain with 3 donors and 3 recipients. Tomorrow Wednesday all the donors and recipients will meet for the first time before they are discharged. I just wanted to tell the world that my wife and I are very proud of her selfless act which will provide a more normal life for someone. In Minnesota our driver’s license lists us as organ donors but she took that one step further and did it while she is still alive.

What a wonderful daughter. Y'all did a great job raising her. I want to add our thanks especially as my wife is a kidney recipient. She lost both kidneys to a rare autoimmune disease. Her brother is her donor. We have donor driver licenses, and our military IDs show us as donors. Don't take it to the grave with you, you won't need it on the other side.

No words can describe what she did for another human being.
