Super Bowl Stories

Wow...Thank GOD it's Friday....After a day of substituting teaching at a local itermediate school teaching 5th and 6th grade, it was refreshing to see a Channel 11 newscat at 4p.m. highlighting superbowls stories.

What was interesting aboutthis particular story is ; it hits home with me. I too, have received a transplant...a kidney. Anyway, in Channel 11 afternoon story piece was about a 12 yearr girl who had a heart transplant at the age of 5 months old...on superbowl Sunday 1990 -something.

The parents said that the received the call on that particular Super Bowl Sunday. Since, it is a family tradition to celebrate and watch football...Of course, the family are Steellller fans!! Me too. Haha

Great Super Bowl Story, Great Gift of Life Story, Great Testimonial.

Texas Sports Beat (TM) aims to spotlight organ donations aggressively. The writer/creator of this blog has had a kidney transplant after living on dialysis for ten, you hear me-ten years!!!

I find it so wonderfully amazing the stories I hear about people like me received a transplant and too,, those families of their lost love one willing to continue life by donating their loved one's organs. When this happens, alife is saved. The experience of knowing, someone died to save my life ....priceless. Now, some patients are able to received a "living donor" transplant as well.

Please take time out to become a organ donor...save someones life.
