Christopher Inman
Tissue and Eye Donor
/June 25, 2022
I didn’t know my husband, Chris, was a registered donor until the night we lost him in a motorcycle accident. Due to his injuries he wasn’t able to donate organs, but he was able to donate tissue, bone, valves and his corneas. That night changed my whole world.
Saying thank you
Many donor families find that corresponding with the transplant recipient or recipients can be a powerful experience. Donor families can take comfort in sharing stories and sending well wishes to those who live on because of their loved one.
Should you choose to connect, we're here to help. Letters and cards can be a tremendous gift to both the donor families and recipients. To protect everyone, we provide guidelines for communication. Names remain confidential unless both parties agree to share those with one another, and we provide a correspondence address. We are happy to share sample letters to help you get started.
For more information about corresponding with recipients, please call us at 615-564-3649.
