“Thank God for my first cousin Elijah for getting educated about organ donation. I love him for giving a part of himself to me. With this kidney transplant I feel great. I presently work at a dialysis unit and plan on educating patients about organ donation because it does work! I love you Elijah for giving me a gift of life.” “Leslie isn’t my cousin, she’s my sister. By seeing my mother go through her problems with dialysis, I knew what my cousin was enduring. It pained me to see her struggle knowing I could do something about it and I did. My cousin and I grew on each other and we became very close over the last eight years. I don’t want to lose her, for without Leslie I would be lost myself.”
