It was 3 years ago when an unknown person gifted their #lungs to me, a complete stranger. I am so #grateful. #Organdonation is such a #selfless act. Below is a video chronicling my journey. In me, my donor still lives. 💚🙏💚 #BeADonor youtu.be/-edADRv21ic

“In someone else’s darkness, my life was saved. And I just can’t thank that person enough.” Days following a double lung transplant, 4.5 years ago, I still think of this unknown saviour daily. #BeADonorMonth #OrganDonation beadonor.ca 🫁💚🫁
