Debbie Shearer's son, George, lost his life in a car accident. Her son's final act was to try to give life to others through donation of his organs.
As a result of the accident, George's organs were unable to be donated. However, that single act set in motion a series of events that even the most altruistic of souls could have never seen coming.
Taking inspiration from her son, Debbie decided to become a living donor and give one of her kidneys to someone in need in honor of George.
