“This journey has given me a deeper appreciation for life, for time, and for every moment I get to spend with my family.” 💙💚

During her junior year of college, Shayla was diagnosed with heart disease. Despite the challenges, she continued building the life she dreamed of, including becoming a mother. After her son was born prematurely at 28 weeks, Shayla went into end-stage heart failure and was placed on the transplant waiting list.

In August 2025, Shayla received the gift of a donor heart, giving her a second chance at life and more precious time with her son and family. Today, she is 9 months post-transplant and celebrating her first Mother’s Day with renewed hope and gratitude.

This Mother’s Day, we honor mothers like Shayla, as well as the donors and donor families who make stories like hers possible.

This Teacher Appreciation Week, we are honored to celebrate Shay Stackler, a teacher at Metairie Park Country Day School and a passionate advocate for organ donation through our Operation Donation program.

Shay’s connection to our mission began when several family members needed transplants. She then became a dedicated volunteer and a teacher advisor, helping educate and inspire students about the power of donation and transplantation.
Now, Shay’s own story has come full circle, and she is preparing to receive a kidney from her brother in the coming weeks, a beautiful reminder of how life-changing the gift of donation truly is!

As we celebrate Shay and all educators this week, we also honor the thousands still waiting for their second chance and the incredible donors who make renewed health, hope & quality of life possible.

At just six months old, Smith was given a second chance at life through a liver transplant that gave him the chance to grow up, dream and live fully.

When it was his turn to get his driver’s license, he didn’t hesitate. He said "YES" to becoming a donor. Because he knows firsthand what that decision means. One choice can change everything. 💙💚
