I am four years out from my liver transplant. I am so thankful for my donor family. I have never met them, but that does not diminish my appreciation and how blessed I truly am. Since my transplant in February 2020, my life has totally changed. I cherish every moment and take special interest in to relationships I have made. I was given a second chance and want to be an inspiration to others to want to change the world. My goal has always been to leave this world better than I found it. I have often prayed and asked, "why was my life spared?" The only answer I get is that my work is not done here. I have returned to work full-time, finished my Bachelor's in Communications degree, continued my radio career, pod-casting, and have found a new interest in writing and sharing my story. I plan to participate in the 2024 Transplant Olympics in Birmingham in July, as well as, volunteer in any capacity needed. I plan to participate not only for myself, but to also raise awareness and show others anything is possible even when obstacles block your path. I plan to participate in golf, tennis, and bowling ,if possible. When I was diagnosed with liver disease, I was determined to beat it. I had a wonderful supporting cast and with the help of the UAB hospital staff, they kept me focused on moving forward. My story is long and would like to share more. I simply want to raise awareness on how important organ donation is. I am living proof. I often say the most powerful person in the world is the storyteller. He has the power to inspire and motivate others. I would like to see others write their own story and be the best that they can be. Raising funds to participate in the Transplant Olympics is only the tip of the iceberg. I want to help others to be able to participate and share their success stories. God has blessed me in many ways. The Transplant Olympics gives us a platform to share how life should be cherished. We have the opportunity to change the world one relationship at a time.
