Hi Den! I just wanted to say I am very proud of the work you are doing on behalf of organ donation. Several years ago I sat my whole family down and expressed my wishes to them to be a donor and begged for them to consider this also. By the end of the e ening we had all agreed and signed our donor cards. After meeting you and your wonderful family, I know we made the right decision. I would also like for everyone to know that Denise also is a very active volunteer in our community for diff. childrens gro ps and would like to encourage each of you to follow her steps in this area also. She gives of her time unselfishly and brings no political agenda with her as so many do. She is a true inspiration for all that know her and many that don't. Thank you fo all the smiles and laughs you have brought to our lives and will continue to bring because of Cheryl's generosity and Stacy's love of life. We love you Denny!

Hi there! A good Hepper friend named Bob told me of your story. I have Hepatitis C and will be starting the Combo therapy in less than a week, for the first time. I appreciate anymore notes or information as to what the treatment is like, first hand. I kn w that you've had it and the doctors have not had it! Your story is very moving and it was an inspiration to read!! I've met other friends that have Hepatitis C that mean everything to me, so I can imagine how close you'd feel to your donor. Take care and I hope to hear from you sometime. HUGZ***Karen

My daughter Amy West was a class mate of Stacy's. She met her in 5th grade but had just begun to become school friends when Stacy died. We were very touched by all of this and tape every show, save every article about Stacy that we know about. I have t e Good Housekeeping Mag on the story. We live in the same neighborhood as Stacy's mom, in fact my husband is the president of the homeowners association. We taped the Debra Duncan show for Amy and she just watched it today, April 1. She lives in Colleg Station and is a Medical Assistant with Scott & White. She thinks of Stacy often and now feels a special bond to the recipients. Good luck to you all and thank you for sharing your stories.

This website is a masterpiece. What a great outlet for communication. I am so glad and relieved that you are still around after all of your dilemmas. The big guy in the sky sure has watched over you. I think he made a great decision to keep you around to raise your kids (that includes the big kid, Mark) After going through ith my divorce, I have realized and experienced the demise of divided families. The psychological impairments that the children have to face and deal with due to a divorce is so unfair. Unfortunately, many kids are left to their own healing without a seco d thougt from the happy single parents that are footloose and fancy free to do as they please. We are accountable as parents and I am damn glad that you are still around for them. What a miracle you been blessed with. God loveya, Randy @ the Desert K

My husband of 23 yrs passed away in April due to liver complications that HEP C caused. We didn't even know he had it. I see why t ey call it the "Silent Killer". He never got the chance to be put on a transplant list. Hopefully more research/public awareness will spread the word about this horrible disease. God Bless you & your family.

Denise-Just wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed the article in Good Housekeeping. I really enjoy seeing stories somewhat like our own. My wife Lil received a kidney in February 1998 from Holly Lea Nelson, a 15 year old from Nebraska. It has been our great priviledge and pleasure to meet and become close to Holly's family. They are just the most wonderful, loving people and are now for ll practical purposes a part of our family. Yes, that first meeting was SO emotional but since then it's been like we've known each other for ever. Lil and I don't have a web page yet but you can visit the page that LeAnn Nelson, Holly's Mom made for he from the donor section of the TxAmerica page or by going to www.angelfire.com/ok/alittlepieceofheaven. If you then go to the link "Holly's recipients" you will find us there and our story of Lil's transplant and a news story of us meeting the Nelsons. ounds like your Christmas will be a good one. We are doing Thanksgiving with the Nelsons this year and are really looking forward to it. Congatulations on a wonderful story and keep sharing the message. Take care and God bless.

How wonderful that you've been able to meet the donor family and that a liver was available to you. I'm a donor Mom and hope some day to be able to meet those that my son's death has helped. May God bless. (p.s I have a son Logan too :)

I am a friend of Cheryl's...we 've known each other for about 14 years, played bells in church together. I was Stacy's choir chime teacher when she was very young. She was a beautiful young woman who will always be missed, but made a lasting contributio that means so much to others. The donation of her organs is the only way to make some kind of sense out of her death.

He is a liver recipient as you are. Keep yourself well! Stacy sounds like she was a beautiful person! Best of luck to you in the future!

Hi Denise, Guess I'm finally going to sign your guestbook. I think its about time, don't you. I just want everyone to know how much it has meant to me to get to know you, Tommy (one of Stacy's kidney recipient's, and Bob (her heart recipient). It took several mont s after Stacy died and hearing people say "Aren't you glad you donated Stacy's organs? What a comfort that must be." before it really was comforting. Meeting the three of you has changed my life for the better again. I wish all donor families could at east hear the voice of their loved one's recipient. I just don't have the words to express what it meant. Guess that's all for now. I love you and your family and am so very glad you are an important part of my life now. I look forward to seeing you, Bob, Tommy, and meeting Patsy (Stacy's lung recipient) next month at the reunion (or union) of Stacy's famil and friends with her recipient's families and friends. Love Always, Cheryl XOXO

I am glad you visited my site and let me to yours. I rarely check my guestbook because it has not been functioning quite right. The guest goes to all the trouble of filling in the info and comments and then it goes into error. It did not do that with y u so that must mean that I was meant to be in contact with you. I enjoyed your site and your story. I am still on my first liver, a gift from a man named Steven. I have heard from his family also. I thank God daily for this gift - it is the biggest and best I have ever received and it is the biggest and best that Steven ever gave. It is truly a miracle. Congratulations on your success and I will add you to my gratitude prayer list. Joseph

By the way my daughters middle name is Denise , her first name is Sharrell .I also have diabeties now but under good control. That took lots of work and a good doctor.

I have HepC. I am a 40 yr. old man with a wife and two boys 20 and 12. I've had HepC for about 20 yrs. I have fibrosis and bridging fibrosis. Along with about six other HepC related health problems. I'm really glad to hear that you are doing so well and I with you continued recovery and success. I was recently on interferon/ribaviron, it made me so awfully sick that just when my viral load went from over 25 million down to near zero, I quit the treatment. I know you probably think I'm an idiot for doing that but it made me feel like I was dying. If fact I strongly considered suicide. Even my study coordinator thought I should quit the treatment. Oh well, water under the bridge. I wish you all the Best! You're brother, Lindsey

Been in IFN 3 complete times, also infergen. Had to stop in April because I had a seizure. My question is ...how sick does one have to be to be on the list? I have an HMO and even though their liver dr. requested an evaluation 2 yrs. ago, they said I wasn't sick enough. I've never asked this before and I hope you can shed some light on this.
