how ironic that i'm sitting here wearing a t-shirt, which asks, " r u an organ & tissue donor?" when God calls me home, they can have whatever parts of my body may prove useful to someone else.
i have a friend who, in her early 20s, had a kidney transplant. in transporting her to and from north jersey to philly (hospital), for various appointments, it was truly a humbling experience. i thought once she had the transplant, it had a "lifetime warranty". little did i know that she'll probably have a next transplant, given her age, at the time of the initial transplant.
i urge all to seriously consider donating their organs &/or tissue. in nj, the # to call is 800.sharenj
