  • David had just graduated from high school. He was 18 years old and very loving. He was a true trickster, always playing jokes on people (especially me). We love him and we miss him, but we are glad that he could give someone else the ability to see.

I couldn’t believe that someone I didn’t even know would care enough to give their loved one’s corneas to me.
