Only 7 days left til surgery. Follow my experience all the way up to surgery day. It's the final countdown!

As time carried on, my belly grew bigger and our relationship with Vincent, the five year old little boy I'm donating to, grew closer.  We saw them a few more times throughout my pregnancy.  We spent fourth of July at the same place as them and spent some summer nights at mutual friends.  We saw them here and there but not enough to bring up his disease.  

In September, I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl.  Giving her life made me realize how much one could humanely love another human being.  This put even more of an urge and want to be a donor.  I couldn't imagine having an ill child myself on top off regular duties in life and I truly find myself honored to be changing not only Vincent's life but also his family's life..
