šŸ’š Throwback Thursday with a life-saving reminder šŸ’š

This , during , weā€™re reflecting on a powerful story of siblings, sacrifice and hope.

St. James caregiver Desiree Phillips and her brother Kyle Isakson have always had each otherā€™s backs. When Desireeā€™s kidney disease progressed and dialysis became part of her daily life, Kyle stepped in committed to doing whatever it took to help his sister get a second chance.

After months of testing, lifestyle changes and overcoming his own health challenges, Kyle learned he wasnā€™t a direct match. But he didnā€™t stop there. By donating his kidney through a paired exchange, Kyle helped make it possible for Desiree to receive a new kidney sooner, while his donation saved another life across the country.

Today, Desireeā€™s kidney is thriving, Kyle is back to doing what he loves, and their bond is stronger than ever (with a sense of humor intact).

Stories like theirs remind us that organ donation isnā€™t just a gift, itā€™s a ripple of hope.

A small act. A big impact. šŸ’š

This spring, our caregivers came together with generous hearts for our annual Spring Food Drive, and it made a real difference. Thanks to the kindness of the St. James Hospital community, about 500 grabā€‘andā€‘go snacks were donated to Action Inc., helping nourish neighbors facing housing and food insecurity.

Each snack was more than a donation, it was a moment of compassion, dignity, and care. Together, weā€™re living our mission by supporting those who need it most and showing how powerful small acts can be when we come together.
