Donor Families
At Miracles In Sight we understand that the loss of anyone is tragic, and we know that friends and family will grieve that loss. At such a time, the emotions surrounding the issue of organ, tissue and eye donation can be overwhelming. Yet through the generosity of the person who is gone, another person will have the opportunity to see, and we hope the friends and family will take some comfort from this. Below are some resources to help deal with the loss of a loved one.
