HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! Honoring Birth Tissue Donation
The day your child is born is nothing short of a miracle—an amazing day celebrated once a year. But for mothers who choose to give the gift of Birth Tissue Donation, that day becomes something even more powerful. It becomes a gift that brings healing, hope, and new beginnings—a gift that’s celebrated every single day.
Birth tissue has the incredible ability to help others heal in ways that truly change lives. I know this because I’m one of those lives. Just over a year ago, I needed a skin graft. My doctor explained how donated birth tissue could bring the assistance of live cells to support and regenerate my own healing process. Thanks to a mother’s decision to donate, and the miracle of her child’s birth, I was able to receive the graft—and I was able to heal.
I carry deep gratitude for that mother and child who unknowingly touched my life forever on the day they entered the world.
Today, I’m proud to lead a team that supports organ, eye, and tissue donation in all its forms. But this Mother’s Day, we shine a light especially on Birth Tissue Donation and the life-changing power it holds.
