That is great. Well done. You will see life isn't as serious as people make it out to be. Don't take anybody or anything for granted and live along time. Congratulations.

Being in the hospital at the holidays sucks but when it's because of transplant & a 2nd chance at life, it's worth being there. I hope people are encouraged to be donors by this article & make sure your family is aware of your desire to be a donor. Even if you designate that you want to be a donor, consent is still obtained from next of kin.

Wow. Have known this family forever. What a wonderful Christmas Gift. I am so very happy for both of them. Enjoy this gift to the fullest.

what a blessing. I hope this young lady pulls through everything.

It is great to see such uplifting news and equally great to see people recognizing that opening their eyes in the morning is truly the best gift of all! I am marked to be an organ donor should I fall into the state where that is the best that is left of me. People may want to look into it... it is not as simple as you may think - - the donor has to be in the right place at the right time, on life support or deceased under all the right circumstances... truly there are no coincidences. May the Spirit continue to bless you as you honor this gift by truly living and loving life!

Good luck, hope you heal quickly
