What Organ donation means to me

OK, so here I go.


After long thought, this is what organ donation means to me.

1.It means no more oxygen (at least for awhile)

10. Enjoy summertime, beaches, picnics,etc without struggling to breathe.

12. If I take a 2 hour shower it's because I want to, not because it takes that long trying to breathe to finish.
