Bill Millard and his wife, Tish, sadly lost their son to an ATV accident. Not wanting his organs to go to waste, they decided to donate them. One of the recipients was Jake MacKinnon who got their son’s pancreas.
Jake MacKinnon is a young boy that struggled with type 1 diabetes since he was five years old. Jake was 19 at the time of the surgery.
Jake’s mom, Janice, was so appreciative of the kind deed that she got in touch with the Millards a few months after the surgery to thank them.
It took that long to contact the Millards because of laws that protect both sides’ privacy. But Janice was insistent that she be able to the Millards. That’s because she knew that they were hurting because of the loss of their son while her son was alive and well.
Janice got their home address and wrote the family a letter. The Millards then sent Janice their contact details. The two families had been close friends ever since.
A decade later, Bill found himself in need of a kidney for he too was battling diabetes.
What he didn’t expect was for Janice to donate her kidneys to Bill as a way of helping the people that gave her son a new lease on life. Her son, after all, grew up to become a healthy young man who’s now married and living his best life. Thank goodness that their blood was compatible.
Hospital officials said that they’ve never seen anything quite like it. They never thought they’d see an organ recipient give back to a donor this way.
The two camps feel like this act of kindness will bring their families even closer than ever before.
