What a nice surprise!

This is nice. I just got invited to go to NYC in May to attend a recognition dinner for those who anonymously donated a kidney to start a chain of transplants. National Kidney Registry is giving me two nights in New York. The dinner is at the Waldorf. Get to see my sister too.   :)

       I think it is great to spread the word about donation "chains". I think even more people would donate if they knew that they would be helping several people and not only the one initial recipient. Enjoy!
