Title: Organ Donor Awareness Week, Ireland
Post by: Darthvadar on March 30, 2009, 01:49:37 PM
Hi Everyone...

This is Organ Doner Awareness week in Ireland... It runs from March 28th to April 4th...

The symbol we use is the Forget-Me-Knot flower, bandaged to a piece of dead wood... The dead wood represents the failed organ, and the Forget-Me-Knot flower baandaged to the deadwood symbolises the transplanted life-giving organ...

These symbols are sold during Awareness week to raise funds for The Irish Kidney Association... The Assoc. provides support, both practical and emotional to kidney patients, and their families...

For more information about this wonderful organisation visit www.ika.ie. Please take a look...

Love to all...

Darth...
