Dear Donor Family,

Words cannot express my overwhelming gratitude for the gift of my sight.  I am a mother to two beautiful daughters and three grandchildren and a wife as well.  Recently I learned that I had inherited a gene from my mother that was causing me to lose my eyesight rapidly.  I made the decision to have a corneal transplant so that I could see and hug my children and grandchildren and share their growing up experiences.  You have given me the ultimate gift of my sight at a huge sacrifice to your family.  I will be eternally grateful for your miraculous gift.  I will remember you always. Thank you with all my heart.

Judy
