This is one of the most memorable pics from the tranplant games. The halls of the hotel that was hosting the event was lined with donor quilts. So many that it was awe inspiring. Each square was made by the family of an organ donor. Many of the squares had pictures of the donors and words of about their lives and what they meant to their family. Most of the squares were dedicated to children and young adults as they are often organ donors. I really can't come up with the right words to describe the feelings I had while looking at these quilts: thankful, sad, touched, grateful, fortunate...
Overall it made me commited to continuing to spread the word about the importance of organ donation.
