~THANK
YOU~
~Carol
Bergman~
An
incredible astounding gift,
Priceless
beyond worth.
The
power to see the beauty
And
the loveliness on earth.
To
see the sun set in the west.
Be
aware of each new dawn.
Perceive
the radiance of a flower.
Witness
a child new born.
To
know the rapture and the wonder
Of
reorganizing cherished faces.
The
love reflected in their eyes,
No
other sense replaces.
To
thrill to a baby's first smile,
A
delight beyond mere measure.
And
with this amazing gift,
To
grant those we love more pleasure.
Behold
the beauty of the Rose.
A
bird with fluttering wings,
Comprehend
earth's awesome treasures,
All
of life's magic things.
To
read a book or paint a flower
Sculpt
with marble wood or stone.
Compose
songs, orchestrate the music,
Create
a special poem.
More
than diamonds, rubies,
Emeralds,
gold or jade,
Is
this fantastic favor,
The
miracle of sight you gave.
To
have the freedom just to walk
And
never blindly fall.
A
privilege greater than moneyed wealth,
The
greatest gift of all.
The
exhilaration and the marvel,
Of
being able just to see.
Words
could never thank you half enough
For
the riches you've given me.

HOW
TO BECOME
AN
ORGAN AND TISSUE DONOR
Transplantation
saves lives, but only if you
help.
All you need to do is say yes to organ
and
tissue donation on your donor card
and/or
drivers license, and discuss your
decision
with your family.
Each
day about 57 people receive an organ
transplant,
but another 13 people on the
waiting
list die because not enough organs
are
available. Talk to your family about organ
and
tissue donation, so they know your wishes.
Even
if you've signed something, your family
will
be asked to give the consent before the
donation
can occur.
THINK
ABOUT IT
You
could help up to 50 people if you decide
to
donate your organs and tissue.
Your
HEART
could beat for someone else.
Your
LUNGS
could breath for someone else.
Your
KIDNEYS
could free two people from dialysis.
Your
LIVER
could save the life of a person awaiting transplantation.
Your
CORNEAS
could give sight to two people.
Your
BONES
could help other people's damaged joints.
Your
SKIN
could help heal many victims.
