Sisters, mothers, fathers, grandchildren, friends, brothers, strangers, husbands, daughters, cousins, wives, professors, and neighbors are all the intended beneficiaries mentioned in the stories we remember this month. As we well know, most did, indeed benefit and we donors count it as a wonderful experience. We share your remembered and present joy. Some did not. Some lost the given gift, a risk we must prepare for as donor candidates and would be recipients. Rebecca’s recipient, her husband, died, and our hearts go out to her. Take care, all.
