Jessica- Donor Mom
T![]() On September 2nd 2014 at 1:12am the last test was complete, and the words time of death shattered all the hearts in the room. We knew our little boy had something special to give, and that his time wasn’t over, during the five days in the hospital his little heart never once needed help. It was the strongest heart the doctor said he’d ever seen and that’s when we knew donating to a baby in need was the best decision that we could make. We got to stay an extra day with him, and on September 3rd 2014 at 10am the surgeons rolled our little boy out of the room to donate his heart to a little boy, his liver to a little girl and to combine his kidneys into one for a 29 year old woman. He saved 3 lives. We recently got to contact Toby’s heart recipient. His name is Daniel and is doing wonderful, we meet up time to time it’s so amazing getting to hear my babies heart after so many years ! Toby gets to live on through these 3 special people who are so dear to my heart. Donating was the best decision we have ever made and has helped my family cope with his loss , because we know that he is still going strong, never gone, and never forgotten. Always our sweet baby boy, Toby Lee Braxton Hall. |
