emphasize the statistic that less than 1% of donors end up meeting the extremely specific criteria to donate their organs. It's a very, very specific criteria. However, even if all of your organs cannot be harvested, your eye tissue and other tissues can still be harvested. So this is still going to help so many people with the gift of eyesight, the gift of tissue can help

countless people, but really the organs are very difficult to procure from my understanding. And throughout the entire process, LifeSource made us feel so much more comfortable. They answered our questions every step of the way. They were next to her bed with us when we were saying goodbye. They gave her, I think, what they call a hero walk as they took her off.

I'm going to start tearing up as they took off the ventilator. All of the health care workers came into the hallway and just clapped as they took her to go harvest her organs. And it was really, really special, you guys. Oh my gosh, it was really, really special. They gave us a heartbeat in a bottle. And so now I still have her heartbeat in a bottle on my shelf.

I don't think that we would have been able to comfortably go through the process without LifeSource really holding our hands every step of the way. My tears were all over the consent forms. And the lovely lady really just held my hand and gave me boxes of tissues and

It was very difficult, and without the support and love and kindness of the transplant team, we would not have been able to handle it. And I really feel that she was honored. This happened at HCMC, and there is a flag that they raise for people that donate their organs. And they do a flag raising ceremony. And that was really, really special as well.

So the way that I felt that Teresa's life was honored, second to none, there is no possible way that you could have made that they could have made the process feel any easier. Just like everything that they did really made me feel comfortable and the rest of my family. And it's a really difficult time. Not everybody necessarily agrees with organ donation. So

Just having that support really made it leaps and bounds better. And even to this day, they get you in contact with other families that went through the process. And it's really special to hear from other families that maybe lost a kid or lost somebody else. And it's just really special to have that community. So thank you, LifeSource. Thank you all organ donation services.

Yeah. Can I also just say thank you to The organ donation team, without you guys, there wouldn't be the beauty in the pain of losing my aunt.

Knowing that somebody else out there is getting the gift of seeing a beautiful sunset or seeing their granddaughter's face or their mother's face or, you know, just some of the hardships in the world and that my aunt in her last moments could pass that on to everyone Another human being is really the most beautiful thing I could possibly think of.
