Remember awhile ago when we discussed whether or not we would choose to become organ doners? This is one of the reasons why we say, "Yes!", to becomming a doner. God bless the wonderful selfless family of the doner woman who died and made this possible for Connie Culp. This is an incredible story........

From the time we take our first breaths in life, we are elegible to become doners and we never know at what age we will die. Even those with illnesses have some parts of their bodies that they can donate when they pass away. My last husband's body was full of cancer, but he was still able to donate his eyes. I cannot explain what it felt like when I received the letter thanking me and saying that my husband's eyes gave sight to two people.
Sorry to go on and on, but I am a strong believer in being an organ doner. If you have not signed your driver's liscense or registered to become a doner, I encourage you to do so now. Thank you for listening as this story of Connie Culp moved me.




I know they did a thing like that in England after a woman's lab ate her face I think.
