I got an email from Jackie Corle from The Star Ledger about their three-part series on Kidney Donation called “Chain of Life”. I was so emotionally consumed by the powerful showcasing of the story and I can only say -  “Great work guys”.

Here is a small snippet of the video that is part of the three-part series.

Chain of Life - Kidney transplant chain helps six patients

Check out the Three parts of the series below.

Thanks to The Star Ledger, especially Amy Ellis Nutt, John O Boyle, John Munson, Aristide Economopoulis, Jennifer Brown, Patti Sapone, Matt Rainey, NataliaJackie Corle and others who have been part of producing this series. They have shown how organ donation can really change somebody’s life.

Thanks to all the doctors, nurses, emergency specialists, other medical professionals and ALL THE DONORS who chose to make a difference. It is very rare such a wonderful gift of life happens on a day and I am happy to be living during one of those days.

Isnt it nice when miracles just continue to happen. I read today that a Michigan man decided to donate one of his kidneys to a person he had never met. Nice inst it. But it doesn’t stop there. Now the Phoenix woman’s husband will donate one of his kidneys to a perfect stranger. Wow. That is nice. Now again, it doesn’t stop there. That woman’s best friend will then do the same. And so on and so on. I am really happy to see people do this. Let this chain event rekindle the spirit of organ donation in the society. God Bless.

Thanks to Matt Jones from Michigan who started this chain event. Thanks to Ron Bunnell from Phoenix, who decided to donate his kidney continuing the charity.
