2016 Transplant Games of America

I am excited about joining Team SoCal as we participate in the 2016 Transplant Games of America. The games will be held in Cleveland, Ohio from June 10th thru the 15th.  This will be my second year participating in games. My first time was the 2014 games in Houston, Texas where I had an opportunity to meet members of the transplant community from all over the United States, organ recipients, donor families, living donors, members of our transplant medical teams and supporters. Our Team SoCal participated in multiple competitions winning medals in several of them. It was great fun meeting and exchanging stories and pins with participants from different states, and the most rewarding  aspects of that experience was the opportunity to join the transplant community in celebrating life,  raising awareness, throughout the nation and the world, of the critical need for organ, eye and tissue donation, and encouraging organ donation. I am thankful for that experience and I look forward to Cleveland in June 2016.
