I am thankful to the family that made the decision to donate their loved ones lungs. My brother is alive this Thanksgiving because of that very unselfish decision. And God willing mangy more years. The words thankful or grateful don't even seem adequate.
I am also thankful that I had nearly 17 years with my "Pup". Obviously not a child but way more than just a pet. A loving member of my family.
