one of my most favorite memories ever...
she lived on a farm. she was talking to k about the sun rising and the cows eating their grass breakfast. while that darn cute woodpecker was pecking on the house. she lived on peaceful land. we would enjoy the mornings in her kitchen sitting in this bay window. i miss those days so much. i miss them more for my girls. thank God i have photographs to envelope those moments again, for all of us. she is so missed, but we sure do feel her warmth rise with the morning sun ;o)
i shared her story here last year... and if you are not educated on organ donation please get educated. her death was unneccessary.

and today in remembrance of her i have finalized my gallery for organ donor awareness month {april} to be displayed. so many thank you's for all the love & support that i have received from carolina donor services, my friends here & close to me and my amazing family....i am a firm believer that it takes a village to bring fourth great things {especially the families i captured}. and from heartache comes education on organ donation through my photographs & stories.
...kisses straight to heaven memaw ^i^
My friends Albert and Patti got tattoos recently to honor the gift of life that someone gave to their spouses, who each needed a liver transplant. Albert's tattoo says "Give Life" and shows a cross with the green ribbon for organ donation. The dates on the ribbon signify the dates of Julie's two transplants. The first liver that she received on January 2nd, never woke up so she needed a second transplant and received it two weeks later.
Patti's tattoo is a butterfly with the green ribbon as the body and the transplant date hovering above. Matt's transplant wasn't an easy one, but 4 months later he is recovering beautifully.
The tattoos are on their forearms so that hopefully people will ask about the images. This will be an easy way to talk about being an organ donor and how grateful they are to the donor and the donor family for the gift of life.
Albert & Julie and Matt & Patti will no doubt be wonderful spokespeople for organ donation. (Photo #4140672)
This video features a great tribute to Hélène Campbell by MPP Lisa MacLeod. But the scene steeler comes in the final seconds when the gentleman to the left of the Speaker's chair can be seen doing the "Hélène Campbell Dance."
