Patient Stories
Approximately 1.5 million tissue transplants are performed each year. Allograft tissue can: save patients facing life-threatening burns, allow athletes with torn ligaments or tendons to heal and regain strength, restore hope to military men and women whose bones or joints have been crushed in combat, and repair musculoskeletal structures, teeth, skin, and spinal components in patients of all varieties.
None of this would be possible without the generosity of each tissue donor and the strength of their family. They look beyond their own grief to envision the possibilities that lie beyond.
Choose a story on the right and read the compelling stories of recipients whose lives have been changed by tissue donation, and the brave donor families that make these possibilities realities.
