    I'm in tears watching this. I can't imagine what it's like to lose a child. My condolences to your parents and family. You are incredible! This little guy will now take care of you for the rest of your lives. What an angel...........🤝💔🥺
  • I also lost my Son named Dylan Patrick Percy. He was texting and driving on the stormy night of June 24th,2015. Although he was on life support for two weeks, he didn't make it. He passed peacefully on JulY 10th, 2015. He too, was a Gift of Life donor. His organs were horribly bruised but he gave his corneas, skin and veins. I'm grateful for the fact that he could help others. I miss him every second of every day. He was the baby of 3 children.#Dylanpatrickforever22.

    My husband had a heart transplant in 2011. His heart came from a 21 year old. His heart is still going strong. We know who the donor is. He was a soccer player on his way to college out of state
