She sent this...I knew she was an angel, but...the follow through makes me cry.
Amber just called me back. she's emailing me a form to fill out of initial info & consent. i gotta tell you, elle - i'm scared shitless & almost think i'm stupid. i mean, i just got out of the hospital from the whole appendix thing. WHY would i CONSENT to ANOTHER surgery? but then i told myself. in God's economy, human what-makes-sense doesn't matter. it doesn't exist. i'm NOT in control here. and ... if it's mean to be, it'll be. if it's not, it's not.
regardless, i hope this guy gets his kidneys, if not from me, from somewhere.
initial call - completed (that's half the battle right there, right?)
next step? forms.
God, thanks for this opp.
xoxo
She's offering to DONATE HER KIDNEY....even scared "shitless" she is following through.
Kirsten, I have to tell you; YOU inspire me.
Your bravery, faith, and intrinsic motivation to always CHOOSE WHATS RIGHT, is more inspiring that I can tell you.
Living donors are deperately needed...
For more info on the case above, or to find out if YOU are a potential candidate to save the life of another, please PM.
And thank GOD for people like Kirsten, above.
(They're rare, but angels are among us).
AND ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

Amazing. What a giving person. What a HUMAN in the most beautiful form of the word.
Truly beautiful!
It just is incredible to me...I cant put word to it. All I can do is share something that LITERALLY leaves me speechless.
She's profound; I've always known that. But she is also LIVING BREATHING PROOF of angels among Us all. If I were in the ocean, drowning (for those who remember this previous post) she would never leave me.
More than that though, SHE WOULDNT LEAVE YOU.
This woman love you; she has NO CLUE who you are, but I can tell you, SHE LOVES YOU.
You are loved, as long as people like HER are alive.
I thank God for her.
me too. :) Thank you.
What an amazing person. She truly is an angel!
Thank you for that. You are truly awsome!
elle, IF i'm an angel, my wings are bent & really wacky and my halo is practically on the floor. but ... thank you. and ... i can hardly wait for 2/21.
Wow...
I think I'm a little confused. Isn't Amber your sister? Is Kirsten donating a kidney? Am I getting old and senile?

You have both inspired me. I have been scared about this whole donating a kidney thing. I also just had surgery, not quite 3 weeks ago. The thought of another is a bit scary. I need to get off my duff and make the call.
