It's not about what's on the page. It's about what it really means.


A child in the hospital
A terrible accident
Emergency surgery
“There’s nothing we can do.”





Six months in the hospital




A lifetime of waiting




Top of the transplant list




Rare blood, young boy

“I’m sorry for your loss.”
Tears of pain stream steady
“Have you considered organ donation?”
Tough decision awaiting





Spiderman 3 on his tiny TV




A soft knock on his door




“A heart… is on its way.”




Tears of joy stream steady

Say good-bye to the lost
Initial shock wears off
Pack up and return home
Black clothes, salty tears



















Say hello to the found




The lifesaver on its way




Surgery at one AM




Prepare for the miracle

Inspired by a boy I know who was awaiting a heart transplant and finally received one :)
