  • "Carson Robert von Aspen was 17 years old. He loved his family, his friends and playing varsity basketball for his high school. He graduated in May 2018, with hopes of becoming a psychologist to treat military veterans suffering from PTSD and mental illness. His dreams fell short when he ended his life in June 2018, less than one month shy of his 18th birthday.⠀ 🔹⠀ Donor Network has always held a special place in the von Aspen home as Carson’s grandmother received a lifesaving heart transplant 15 years ago. We know Carson’s desire to help others would be carried out with his gift of donation. We miss him so very much but know his desire to help others will be carried on by the gift of life he continues to give others with the gift of donation."⠀ 🔹⠀ Register to save a life in Carson's honor at the link in our bio. #donatelife #signupsavelives⠀ ⠀

  • "John was my best friend and husband of 18 years, father of three for 35 years, uncle for 50 plus years, brother for 65 years, grandpa for eight years and friends to many through his lifetime. You knew when you met John, he left a piece of himself with all that he touched. He loved life and the relationships he nurtured and fostered along the way..."⁣ •⁣ Read more of John's story and register in his honor at the link in our bio. #SignUpSaveLives #DonateLife

  • The then 4-year-old Gabriella Vega had just started to experience life when doctors recognized a murmur in her heart. Multiple tests showed Vega had an enlarged heart and two other heart conditions. Vega would eventually go into heart failure without a transplant.⁣ 💕⁣ After 97 days on the waiting list, she received her gift of life and quickly resumed her life as a healthy young girl—growing into a healthy teenager.⁣ 💕⁣ Her mother, Kristi Vega Gutierrez, found a new appreciation for people who selflessly chose donation.⁣ “You can’t take your organs with you, but they can give new life to someone in need,” she writes on “Gabriella’s Heart,” a blog about her family’s connection to donation. #PediatricTransplantWeek
  • Through their selfless gifts, these donors gave hope and healing to others, and we honor them each and every day. 💚💙⁣ Additionally, this shows the incredible importance of registering as an organ and tissue donor and talking to your family about your decision to save lives. #SignUpSaveLives #donatelife #linkinbio
  • Thanks for sharing the importance of donation! 💙💚 #Repost @lipstickandlifesaving · · · It’s National #bluegreenday in honor of Donate Life month this April! 💙💚 Organ donation is something I commonly work with, and also something people don’t talk about too often. PLEASE have those uncomfortable conversations with your family on what your end of life wishes are. 🌠 There is nothing worse than being at the bedside and seeing a family struggle SO HARD with whether or not their dying family member would have wanted to donate...and unfortunately people end up opting to not donate simply because they never had that conversation...that patient could have potentially SAVED up to 8 other people. Organ donation is a huge gift to others, and seeing an organ recipient wake up for the first time with a new heart or new kidney makes it all worth it. 💙⠀ .⠀ I talk about common organ donation myths in the link in my bio you should check out! The most common one I hear that I want to educate you on is this - “if they hear I’m an organ donor, the doctors won’t work as hard to save me”⠀ THIS IS COMPLETELY AND 100% FALSE ❌⠀ Your body is not even considered for organ donation unless one or the other criteria are met:⠀ 1: Your heart has stopped (aka ur dead)⠀ 2: You’re brain dead (you’re also dead, this is irreversible)⠀ So basically what I’m saying is you’re dead before this conversation is brought up by the healthcare team. You’re not comin’ back. So why not give other people who still have a chance...a chance? 🌱⠀ .⠀ Who’s a registered donor out there like me? 🙋🏻‍♀️ If not, please read the link in my bio to get some more info. The link to register is on that page as well. 💚💙

  • "Larry Castrovinci lived his life for the service of others. Right after high school he joined the Army. After that, he went straight into law enforcement, where he excelled to the rank of commander.⁣ 🔹⁣ Even in his untimely death, he gave everything he could. His heart, liver and kidneys went to three different individuals. He passed away in December 2018, four days after his 51st birthday. I can’t help but think what a beautiful Christmas present he gave to the recipients and their loved ones.⁣ 🔹⁣ He is a husband, father, grandfather, son, uncle and brother. He was an inspiration in life and in death."⁣ 🔹⁣ Register in his honor at the link in our bio. #DonateLife #SignUpSaveLives #army #honor #organdonation⁣

  • O’esha Reese passed away unexpectedly in November 2010. The 35-year-old professional chef was a basketball fan and a loving father. O’esha certainly made his mark on the world in life. After passing, his family’s generous decision to donate means he helped heal and improve the lives of at least 27 people through his gifts of his corneas and tissue. This #BlackHistoryMonth, we remember O'esha and all our donor heroes. Sign up. Save lives. DonateLifeAZ.org

  • "In December 2015, our family suffered the greatest loss any family can face. We were told that our beautiful, vibrant 19-year-old daughter, Zoey, would never recover from the coma she had been in for the last 10 days. Despite extensive testing, the doctors could not tell us what had caused the coma. In the midst of our devastation, we made the decision to donate Zoey’s organs...We will miss Zoey and her big laugh and love of life every single day – our hearts will always have a hole in them. We hope that telling Zoey’s story will raise awareness both for Urea Cycle Disorders and for the importance of organ donation." #DonateLife #organdonation
