A Gift from a friends Passing


A Gift from a Friends Passing


As I set here this morning with my writings and my 2 dogs by my feet sipping on a hot cup of decaf, I get this call from a friend of mine that had recently lost her husband,  and a friend of mine as well. As she fought back the tears to share with me that his corneas were donated to, two different people that live in Colorado; a female and a male. It has helped to restore and overcome blindness. That was the 1st letter she has received to inform her of her husband’s blessings. She knows how passionate I am about bringing awareness to low vision, and to help restore vision, so to hear that a friend of mine has giving such a gift for something I am so passionate about, I am honored and speechless and I applaud him! She knew that her husband did a great thing by donating his organs, and his son is so proud of him as well! She knew by his generous gift, that would allow the recipients to see the mountains again, or a new liver, kidney etc… and a 2nd chance of life.  Here’s to you my friend for giving life and vision to those here on this beautiful planet!  He was able to turn something so tragic for those he left behind, to something so wonderful! Your kindness will keep living!
