Organ Donors Are a Dying Breed — We Can Do Better
<p>In the U.S. alone, <a href="https://www.organdonor.gov/learn/organ-donation-statistics" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">17 people die every day</a> waiting for an organ transplant. That’s more than <em>double</em> the amount of people who perished in the Twin Towers, but annually.</p>
<p>My best friend could have been one of them.</p>
<p>One of my best friends, Amy, is a NICU (neonatal intensive care unit) nurse, has a dark sense of humor that could make Vonnegut cringe, and has farts that could clear a room in seven seconds. Gas aside, she’s the kind of person people just gravitate to.</p>
<p>And she wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the man who donated her heart dying.</p>
