What a lovely surprise arrived today. After just over 5 years we received a letter from Terry's donor family. We send letters every year around the anniversary but today was the first time we received a reply. The family explained that they thought about replying before but found it too painful. They also explained that they very much appreciated our letters & hoped they would continue. It's lovely to finally know a little about the donor whilst sad at the same time. Have to admit that a few tears have been shed .xxx

That is really lovely to hear h0b0 and I think the fact that you have sent those letters year after year is wonderful. I'm sure whenever they read them, they were reminded of their relatives generosity, kindness and that a part of them still lives on while giving another person the gift of life.
