I know how those people feel that are waiting,everyone who can be a doner should be a lot of people need help, pleale help and be a (doner...) bill.
I was so moved by the video. My mum died recently and we donated her organs. He was only 56 but her organs helped seven young people, I literally had tears streaming down my cheeks when I saw the faces of the people my mum may have helped. Thank you and the very best of luck. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

I was so moved by your video. We lost our son at the age of 23 in June 2006 and decided to donate his organs. Stephen saved the life of five people including 2 young boys. Seeing this video has made me feel so proud to know that our beautiful Son has given the Gift of Life to others. This gives us strength. You do a fantastic job with your campaign.

Dear Emma & Emily,
What a deeply moving video. I shall send the link to all my friends around the world.
My 22 year old student daughter Zoe", died in a motorcycle accident in 1998. She'd said, 'If anything ever happens to me, I want all my spare parts used to help other people'. When the unthinkabe happened, we remembered. Her heart valves transformed the lives of 2 little girls. Her cornea restored sight to a young man. This has brought great comfort to us.
One of the 'little girls' is now 15 - a bright lively teenager, enjoying all the things young people like to do. We are so proud of her.
We have just published a beautifully illustrated book where donor families and recipients of all kinds of organ and tissue transplants have written their inspiring personal stories, saying how much a transplant has changed their lives.
You can see and download the book from: http//transforminglives.blogspot.com.
I shall put a slip into every book with the link to your wonderful video.
Dear Emma & Emily,
This video clip should be shared around the globe. Both of you have done a truly amazing thing. My heart aches for everyone in need. Emily, you will be in my prayers for your precious gift. I am a Mom to a son "Alex" who received the "Gift of Life" in 2002 at the age of 14 yrs. old. We are enternally grateful to his donor family who lost their 14 yr. old son from a biking accident. Our Alex is doing fine today thanks to the "Gift of Life" from other loving human beings. I have honestly watched this video over 10 times and sent it to as many people as I can on my address book and more.... The musical lyrics are absolutely perfect and bring tears and admiration to both of you.
With love from the US.
Heather, Mom to Alex tx2002, nursing student
