Dear Donor Family,
I am writing to thank you for the organ donation from your loved one. I am very sorry for your loss, and I want you to know that your gift has given me a chance to live a normal, productive life.

I needed a transplant because I had kidney failure due to Diabetes. Since the transplant, I have been able to see and play with my beautiful grandchildren. You and your loved one made it possible for me to experience a more meaningful life and realize how short life can be. I have been donating to charity since my transplant in hopes to give back to others in need, but I realize I can’t match the gift that your loved one gave to me.

For this, I am very grateful to you and your loved one. My family and I will always remember your act of kindness and generosity. I will cherish my gift for the rest of my life.
