April is Be A Donor Month and one of our own is sharing his incredible story in the hopes of increasing organ donation.
It’s a time to raise awareness about the life-saving impact of organ and tissue donation. One donor can save up to eight lives, offering hope and a second chance to patients and their families across the province.
Grant Deme tells us he’s feeling amazing, four months after his life-saving liver transplant.
Grant describes life before the transplant.
His donor saved his life…donating in honour of her late daughter.
Grant says people need to know how quick the recovery can be.
There are many people across the province who say they want to donate, but they don’t put those words into action.
Grant encourages people to check out beadonor.ca pointing out you remain anonymous and can pull out of the process at any time, if you want to.
