I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT SOMEONE ELSES SORROW LEAD TO SAVING THE LIFE OF ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS.

A YOUNG MAN DIED LAST NIGHT AND SAVED MY BEST FRIEND. SHE WAS ON THE WAITING LIST FOR A HEART TRANSPLANT. WITHOUT IT SHE WAS GOING TO DIE. BECAUSE OF ONE PERSON, ONE FAMILY WHO IN THEIR GREAT TIME OF GRIEF DECIDED TO HELP A STRANGER.

THIS YOUNG MAN WAS KILLED IN A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT AND WAS ONLY 22 YEARS OF AGE. MY FRIEND WAS ONLY 38 YEARS OF AGE MARRIED AND HAD TWO YOUNG CHILDREN, ONE AGED 9MONTHS AND THE OTHER WAS FIVE. THEY HAD BEEN VISITING THEIR MOTHER IN THE HOSPITAL FOR THE LAST TWO MONTHS. HER VITAL SIGNS WERE DROPPING QUITE RAPIDLY AND HER BLOODPRESSURE WAS OUT OF CONTROL, SHE LOOKED WHITE AS A GHOST. THE DOCTOR TOLD US THAT SHE WOULDN'T MAKE MUCH LONGER GIVING HER ABOUT ANOTHER TWO WEEKS TO LIVE. SHE WAS CALLED INTO SURGERY TWICE BEFORE BUT THINGS DIDN'T WORK OUT AND THE SURGERIES WERE CANCLED.

I MYSELF AM ONLY 39 YEARS OLD AND LIFE SEEMS TO BE PASSING ME BY QUICKLY BUT NO MATTER HOW BAD THE NEWS IS ON TV AND HOW BAD THINGS MAY BE I CAN FIND THAT MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD ARE GOOD HEARTED AND HELPFULL PEOPLE. IT AMAZES ME EACH AND EVERY DAY. I AM GOING ON MY 21ST ANNIVERSARY OF MY KIDNEY TRANSPLANT AND I HAVE SEEN MANY TRAGEDIES BUT I HAVE SEEN HUNDREDS OF MIRACLES.

THANK YOU AMERICA FOR BEING SO THANKFULL IN SHARING YOURSELF WITH THE LOST PEOPLE OF THE CHRONICALLY ILL. HOW CAN WE EVER REPAY YOU ALL FOR SAVING OUR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF OUR LOVED ONES.

PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING YOUR ORGANS, BONES AND SKIN. ONE HEALTHY PERSON CAN HELP UP TO 72 PEOPLE AND SAVE MOST OF THEIR LIVES. AND TELL YOUR FAMILY ABOUT YOUR WISHES.

JUST THINK IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE YOU LOVE AND WHEN IT HITS HOME, IT HITS HOME HARD.

PLEASE DON'T TAKE YOUR ORGANS TO HEAVEN LORD KNOWS THAT WE NEED THEM HERE.
