2008 Canadian Transplant Games - Interviews
Interview of Linda Rowe (Kidney Recipient), Kurt Penner (Double Lung Recpient) and at the very end, the Organ & Tissue Donation Coordinator from the Kingston Trillium Gift of Life Network
This is a video made by me (Angie of http://kidneykorner.com) and M.U. Duck Productions.
This is at the 2008 Canadian Transplant Games in Windsor Ontario Canada. This means a lot to me since I have had 2 kidney transplants, this recent one just less than a year ago after 6 1/2 years on the dialysis machine.
I feel that the Canadian Transplant Games allows us to feel the fullness of life amongst others who have been through the same things as well as raise awareness publically of Organ Donation.
