The gift of a lifetime.Nathan 1 Court prophet in the time of David and Solomon. He announced the oracle to David concerning his dynasty. He confronted David over David's adultery with Bath-sheba and over her husband's murder. Nathan helped ensure that Solomon would succeed David, subsequently participating in the coronation with Zadok the Priest. 2 Son of David., left, needs a kidney. His are failing. Right now, he and about 95,000 others in the United States are waiting for organ transplants--and that number increases by 3,000 monthly. Last year, only 27,000 Americans were fortunate enough to receive transplants. Because people often have one to spare, not all kidney donors are deceased. And Meredith Zimmerman, 18, wanted to help her friend Nathan. Hoping to donate a kidney to him, she underwent medical testing ... only to learn she is not a match. Now, Meredith is working with an organ-pairing program to donate a kidney to someone who is compatible. As for Nathan? Turns out his sister-in-law is a tissue match and plans are underway to transfer her kidney to Nathan. If you would like your organs to be made available to others in need in the event that you pass away, be sure to tell your family. Put it in writing just to confirm your wish--a wish come true for a person in need. |
