I recieved a Heart on 2/4/2008, all I know about it is that it came from a 38 year old man. I have written the donor family a letter(this is done through Tn donor services)
but have never heard back from them, which that is their choice to contact me back or not. some donor family's wish is to never know anything about who recieved the organs and I respect their wish. if by chance anyone is reading this that lost a loved one on Feb. 3rd or 4th 2008 and their organs were donated, please know that I am forever gratful and someday I would love to thank you in person.
