13 years ago today

My oldest daughter (she is 13) recieved a liver transplant. What a
rollercoaster ride it was in the early years, but she is healthy and happy.
I am so thankful for her second chance at life. :o)

Here's to many many more healthy happy years for your daughter!
(and to everyone else - check that 'organ donor' box on your driver's
license form!)

You come across as a very strong person. Good for you for being so
strong for your family. And welcome the teenage years :)

Sue...

Aww, thank you. Must be the Irish in me ;o) I think I'm going to need to be
very strong to deal with the teenage years, especially with three girls,
lol.

Lesley...

What a wonderful day to celebrate.

Nikki...

Wow! That is so amazing. Do you do anything special to mark the day?

Sue...

We had a party when it was the 10-year anniversary, but we haven't really
done anything on the rest of the years. If she makes it to 20 yrs, I would
love to celebrate again. However, every year that I have her is a
celebration.

Happy rebirthday!

And everyone who hasn't done this yet, please check out how to arrange for
organ donation. In NSW, it's a form you tick on your driver's licence
renewal, but close relatives have the right of veto under some circumstances,
so you need to inform them of your wishes.

Congrats to you, your daughter, and the rest of your family! That's quite
amazing.
