Transplant Hero Awards–Blacktie Colorado!

Read this post by Blacktie Colorado about our recent Inaugural Transplant Hero Awards!

When Steve Farber was 60 years old, his kidneys failed him for the second time in his life. He had a choice: find a kidney, go on dialysis, or die.
 
In order to find a kidney, he nearly went to a third world country, but miraculously his son Gregg gave him the gift of life by donating his kidney in 2004. These two remarkable individuals were honored Thursday evening at the inaugural Transplant Hero Awards.

And thus we are thankful and happy that we can say “Happy Birthday” to Steve, and hundreds of other transplant recipients, because of the miraculous and selfless acts of others.
