Donate for Life

I'm sad to report that one of our MOBsters lost her dear sister last week to chronic lung disease. It's been a very difficult last few weeks as she was being kept alive by machines waiting for a lung transplant, then having that denied due to an infection.

Please give the most generous gift, that of life. Make sure it's indicated on your driver's license and that your family knows of your wishes. Some mother, father or child, may need you after you're gone.

If you would like to make a donation in honor of our friend Diane and in memory of her sister, Karen, please check out these sites (Diane is in Canada):

The "Trillium Gift of Life Network" - Ontario's organ & tissue donation agency. http://www.giftoflife.on.ca/

Or the Toronto General Hospital, University Health Network's multi-organ transplant program website... http://www.torontotransplant.org/organDonation/default.cfm

Also.. to make a donation to an organ donation agency in canada please go to... http://www.transplant.ca/cancon_transprogram.htm#5 and click on the province you'd like to make a contribution to.
Likewise... if you live in the US and would like to make a donation in Karen's memory, there is this site http://www.cota.org/site/c.dqLQI3OEKpF/b.496377/k.CC4B/Home.htm

Thank you friends. Say a prayer for Diane and her family. Hugs Diane ~ I'm so sorry for your loss. J and the mobsters
