I made the decision to become an organ and tissue donor when I was a teenager. My friend and her younger sister were killed at a young age. The younger sister’s organs were donated, including her heart. The heart recipients mother wrote a book about how organ donation saved her daughter’s life. The experience made me realize that life goes on. If my organs can be the saving grace for another human, then let go and live on. A donor can be the true beat for another living soul.
