Feedback from this amazing event
in St. Louis was instant and overwhelming as nurses rose to hug the
recipients delivering letters from patients and donor families around
the world to them. Others have come up to tearfully share their
heart
reactions to the messages both at the luncheon and in the days
after. Since then the stories have continued and this page will
share some of the feedback so you can see how touching your letters
were to these very special people.
