We have GREAT NEWS to share!!!!!!!

It’s been awhile since posting because we didn’t want to jinx anything-but on Monday, June 20th, Helena received a kidney transplant from her beautiful angel, Kathy. We could not be more grateful for this selfless gift of life. Kathy is a hero to our family, and a beautiful soul. We love her very much. Helena and Kathy are both recovering in the hospital but are doing well.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who shared this page, got tested to donate, and prayed for Helena. She has been through the ringer this last year, and her courage and strength kept her going. The kindness from everyone who supported this page and Helena’s journey will never be forgotten.

Please make sure you are registered to donate your organs when the time comes. There is no greater success in life than saving a life.
