Dear OP,
I just heard about a friend who lost their child tonight and I thought of you - my heart aches for all of you. May you all find some sort of peace. You and your daughter remain in my prayers, OP |

The universe works in mysterious ways sometimes.
OP, I joined the donor registry after reading your story a couple years ago, wanting to do whatever I could to help even one less parent go through what you did. Not too long ago, I got the call about possibly donating, and this week, was able to give someone a new "birthday" with a transplant. In all the headache of shuffling schedules to prep for the transplant, and the temporary discomfort I experienced, I lost sight of why I was doing it. And then here comes this thread, brought back from the archives. So OP, I want you to know that sharing your story has made a difference for others, both in appreciating what we have and doing our part to help -- and I too hope you find comfort and peace this holiday. |

I just found this thread after somoene posted about it in Jeff's blog on memorable posts.
So sorry OP, glad you were able to come to some kind of peace. I lost an immediate family member and now that I am pregnant I have been thinking a lot about how it must have effected my mom differently than I thought even then. I hope you are ok today. |

NP here. I also joined the registry more than 2 years ago after reading your post. I haven't gotten a call yet, but will be happy to donate should the match ever be made. OP, please know that your post not only sent out ripples of love, but also triggered ripples of action that may help save other daughters. XXOO |

OP, I just wanted you to know that I still think about you and your precious daughter. I want you to know that reading your words and thinking of them has really helped me to be a better parent, to live in the moment, to let go of the little things.
I hope that you are in a better place in your life. I hope that you are doing well. |
