From The Bottom Of My Donor's Heart 4-17-11.asf

I am a heart transplant recipient. My gift of life came from an unknown donor on August 21, 2007 at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. Shortly after my life-saving surgery I made a silent promise to my donor that I would honor him by ysing his example as a way of motivating others to become donors as well.
Our effort s can be found in many places. On Facebook you can join Organ Transplant Initiative, a group dedicated to ensuring that any American who needs a transplant can get one. Our blogs (Bob's Newheart) can be found at www.bobsnewheart.wordpress.com and just recently we were heavily involved in helping to get Medicaid ftransplant funding restored for 96 Arizonans who had been droppeis due to state budget cuts. In the regular course of daily life not many get a chance to actually save someone's life. By being an organ donor you can do just that. You can register as a donor at www.donatelife.net.

It took 12 years to get on the national organ transplant list. 12 years of steady decline due to dilated cardiomyopathy. A failing heart is a slow death. First you tire a little more easily but can still do everything you want to do. Then you get tired earlier and earlier until finally it is fatigue and breathing becomes labored, even moving around while sitting exhausts you. You can get the full story on Wordpress under my blog Bob's Newheart.

This is a wonderful video that shows how compassionate and thoughtful, courageous and strong most Recipients of "The Gift of Life" are in their fight to provide hope, awareness, and information as they so freely share their stories. My husband Peter + I (Peter is waiting 4 an organ on the UNOS list now) are PROUD t2 call Bob Aronson our friend. He is TIRELESS in his effort to help those who still wait...God Bless You Bob, we love you + thxs ~ will b sharin this everywhere!! XOXO ASH AND Peter
