AN ORGAN AND TISSUE DONOR SAVED CLAIRE'S LEG
We could have lost Claire to bone cancer; surgery and chemotherapy saved her life. An organ and tissue donor saved Claire’s leg. A piece of bone donated by a 33-year-old woman replaced the cancerous part of her femur. In time, they have grown together to form a new bone. We are so grateful that someone, in the midst of a tragic loss, made a generous decision to become an organ and tissue donor. We often think of her and what a wonderful gift she gave our family.
