An excerpt from "Dear Abby"

This article came from Dear Abby on April 6, 2006 and I thought that it was a great way to spread the word about organ donations...since there is such a list for organ donations out there...here just an excerpt from the column...if you want to read the whole column just go to her website and click on the date from which the column appeared (April 6, 2006)...Love ya all!!!! Back to work now...

I encourage all of you to talk to your loved ones, listen to them, and say "yes" to giving the "gift of life." It is a way to ensure that a part of our loved ones lives on, and to improve the quality of life for people -- many of whom have been suffering for years, waiting and praying for an organ.
For more information, call the National Kidney Foundation's toll-free number at (800) 622-9010. And if you could use a "lift," mark your calendar and consider attending the Olympic-style Transplant Games, which are being held in Louisville, Ky., between June 16 and 21. In a very real sense, these games are competitions where EVERYONE is a winner.
