Imagine attending a party where the guest of honor is happy to be surrounded by family, friends, and coworkers. Everyone at the party is celebrating a milestone: 25 years of good health, new relationships, and happy memories. Watching this celebration, you know that a decision you made under very difficult circumstances made all of this happiness possible for so many people. Cheryl Eshenour was the guest at this party. Her brave and considerate decision made this possible. Cheryl tells the story of her 12 year old son's tragic bicycle accident, sitting by his bedside in the Intensive Care Unit, and ultimately deciding to donate her son's organs. The guest of honor at the party 25 years later received a life-saving heart transplant thanks to Cheryl's decision. Along with Dwendy Johnson from the Gift of Life Donor Program, Cheryl Eshenour describes in detail in this episode what organ donation is all about.
