Looking to sell. My Final Post on the matter
« on: April 24, 2015, 19:22:51 PM »
Ann had a heart attack on the stair on 12 Apr and died 18 April 2015.
She donated her kidneys , liver and pancreas.  I have met the man who received her kidney and in the next bed was the man who had her liver.
Both men couldn't speak because of their emotion.  I was so pleased to see that she helped 2 people to live who would have possibly died.
The kidney guy had been waiting for 5 years and had given up all hope.
Her body was received by the University Hospital with gratitude.
This incident was on the national news and in the national papers, hopefully, other people will follow my example and have the good feeling of seeing someone have a longer life, by refusing to let good body parts rot in the ground.
Finally I wish to thank the multitude of English and Turkish people who been so kind to me throughout this difficult period.
THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!

How very hard it must be for you, losing such a wonderful woman, her final gifts of life for others must help in some way to sustain you in your despair.  Our warmest thoughts are with you right now.

Hope from despair - one of the finest posts I've ever read on CBF Snowtop. Ann lives on, a remarkable gift that money literally cannot buy. Fabulous.
