Title: I Was On Canada AM (TV) this morning sharing my personal story
Post by: Cordelia on May 25, 2012, 01:08:56 PM

My husband and I were interviewed on Canada AM this morning on TV.  We briefly shared our story/journey through the waiting for a transplant process and a bit of the paired exchange program.          :cheer:

It was just awesome to see a 2 hour segment dedicated to organ donation!!

I was so touched and amazed by others who shared their story, it was just amazing!!! Helene Campbell is truly amazing!!           :clap;     

Just click on the 8 AM segment on the website I provided and you can watch my interview there!!       I'm wearing a red blouse and my husband is wearing a black shirt.   :yahoo;
