Susie Konowalik talked to Ticknall22 WI about her journey and ordeal to be where she is now. What came across to all of us was her optimism and determination to keep her donor’s memory alive ( and that of the family) by being able to take part in, not just the British Transplant Games but also the World Transplant Games where she has been very successful.
We were overwhelmed.
It’s a very sensitive topic. But made me, and many others rethink about if we were in the situation of becoming an organ donor, and the family, or becoming a recipient and the family.
Thank you Susie. Keep going, you are an inspiration to us all.
