JHETT SKAGGS, HEART RECIPIENT
The Heart of a Superkid
Jhett Skaggs, of Lexington, is currently awaiting his second heart transplant. At a young age Jhett was diagnosed with a rare heart condition that eventually led to his first heart transplant. Now Jhett’s heart is weakening and he has been put back on the transplant list for a second lifesaving procedure. Jhett is pictured here with his sister, Merit.
Recently Jhett was able to meet Kevin Durant from the Oklahoma City Thunder. Jhett loves KD and the Thunder! One of LifeShare’s many accomplishments for 2014 was securing a partnership with the Oklahoma City Thunder to spread the word about organ, eye and tissue donation.
Pictured with Jhett is his sister, Merit and OKC Thunder player, Kevin Durant.
