Heart, kidney's, and liver went to recipients, lungs and pancreas to research. I have such a deep appreciation now for how much work goes into organ donation. So many things that have to be coordinated and fall into place at the right time. Curt's situation was particularly challenging. We are so appreciative of Mercy Medical Center and Donor Network NW. Everyone was amazing, and so supportive. Curt was treated with dignity and respect through the whole process. Before they go into surgery they have a moment of silence and can say something for the person before they start. We had them recite: To our talented, generous son, brother, and uncle, you have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly!
