In part 2 of our discussions with Liz, Grace & Shelley, we invite our guests to reflect on six specific questions about their experiences of giving and receiving, and the world of kidney donation.
1. One thing that has been most wonderful about this experience 2. One thing that has been most surprising 3. One thing that has been really difficult 4. One way that you have changed personally because of this experience 5. One thing you wish you could change (magic wand question) 6. One call to action for listeners.
We delve into the remarkable stories of how Shelley, Liz, and Grace were connected through the life-saving act of kidney donation. Shelley, a special education teacher in Portland, Oregon, shares her journey of seamlessly becoming a donor, while Liz, a transplant recipient from Chicago, recounts her renewed zest for life and the accountability inspired by her "kidney sisters." Grace, a hospice nurse from the small island of Kauai, reflects on the joy and challenges of living far from her recipient and the emotional impact of reading a heartfelt letter of gratitude.
Through candid conversations, these women discuss the surprising ease of the donation process, the profound relationships formed, and the ripple effects of their decisions. They also highlight the struggles of shifting societal perceptions of organ donation and emphasize the importance of becoming advocates for this life-changing cause. Tune in to hear about their transformative experiences and the shared mission of encouraging others to consider donation, making a lasting impact on the lives of many in need.
