"12-year-old Devin faced a life-altering moment when a coffee accident left him with second-degree burns on his arm. Devin underwent surgery where allograft skin from a tissue donor was applied. The donor's gift of life played a crucial role in Devin's remarkable healing process, with zero complications. After a month, Devin's own skin began regenerating, marking a significant milestone in his recovery. Cleared for water just in time for a family trip to Hawaii, Devin joyfully embraced the ocean, achieving personal records in scuba diving and snorkeling.

"Dr. Lonnie Thompson, known as the βreal-life Indiana Jones,β spent the past 50 years climbing the worldβs tallest mountains to bring back ancient ice from the glaciers and learn about the climate of the past. βWhen you think about a heart transplant, that is the greatest gift one person can give to another because we only have one. The recovery from that was long. It was arduous. But had I not gotten that heart, I would not have been able to complete six expeditions since that transplant and two of the largest expeditions we have ever run, where I set a world record for a heart transplant patient for elevation in that project. So I think it sends a message to all of those organ donors out there, all those people, and families whose loved ones have donated organs so others can live. How important that is and what a difference it makes in the lives of those who receive those organs.β
Tune in to the National Tree of Life Ceremony on Dec. 19 to hear more of Lonnie and his amzing heart transplant journey. You can also watch the documentary Canary to learn more of Lonnie's amazing story, available on Amazon Prime, Apple, Google Play, YouTube and other streaming platforms."
