It was a suprise to me, that I found this post when I returned. I wanted to let you know that this story hit very close to home for me. The life of a transplant patient and their family (pre and post op) is a very emotional one. I know. My son, Othello, underwent a 5 organ transplant at the age of 9 months. Over the course of his 2 years with me, he went through more than 2 dozen surgeries, 10-20 meds a day, counteless hospital stays, and more. I found that when facing a life altering decision (like transplantation / organ donation) one cannot do it alone. Please, feel free to wander over to my website www.othellosmithfoundation.tk . You can read there the updates, entries, links, etc. I maintained this blog throughout his life, and after to help others like Othello and myself. Thank you Michael, for posting his story. I hope it inspires others... Jennifer (Nash) PS Thanks for the Starbucks card. Michael,
