Words cannot describe the joy I feel knowing that Dustin wishes have come true and he has saved so many lives.  What a true hero! 

Many  :cuddle;  to you mom!  You, Dustin and your family continue to be in my prayers... now I have the recipients in my prayers too.

My Internet has been down for some time now and this is the first thread that I am reading (after my PMs).  What a wonderful expression of all that is good in the human spirit!!  That you should rejoice in others receiving joy from your grief is precious!!  May the Lord continue to fill you with His joy and peace.  Thanks so much for sharing something so precious with us.  :cuddle;

Lori, I just wanted to tell you I think of you everyday.  I have shared Dustin's story with family and friends.  Everyone agrees that you have been an incredible Mom.  Dustin lives on because you thought of others in your worst time. :grouphug;

My best friends daughter died a little over a year ago waiting for a liver.  Wonderful you & wonderful Dustin have given the gift of life & have brought joy to entire families with your priceless gifts.

I know even in your grief you have found much comfort in what you did.
Lori, you are an amazing lady & your son lives on in others.

What a wonderful parting gift for Dustin and you to make to this world.  Many jewels in your crowns.  What a testimony to be on both sides of the transplant list. 

Many many blessings to you and your family.         :guitar:
