to find a kidney for my Dad.

Granted by Heroes: GuardiansAngel
My father is 55 years old and his health is deteriorating fast. He is in need of a kidney to save his live. He is a wonderful man that has always done everything in his power to help others whether it be providing Chrismas for a needy family or giving someone his last dollar to put a smile on their face, and now it is he that is in need of some help. He is type O negative and so we are looking for a living donor with this blood type as well. My sister and I are not candidates for this. Please help if you can.

Words cannot express the miracle that has transpired here. This simply began with a stranger's suggestion on craigslist.org after reading my first attempt at the search for a donor for Dad. I posted an ad on there and one of the first responses I received was from a woman suggesting that I try WUAH and that she was praying for us. Within 30 or so minutes of creating my WUAH profile and posting my wish "Guardians Angel" responded. After undergoing a series of tests and countless prayers from everyone both on the site and our families it is determined that she is 100% a perfect match as a donor to my father. She is one of the most remarkable people I have ever been blessed to have met. I love her dearly and we are all so very grateful that God has chosen to put her in our path. This is truly a miracle of God from start to finish and the power of prayer is conveyed. Many hugs to all of you who have contributed and the biggest of all to our Guardians Angel, we love you Shari and we thank

I am sitting here in tears after reading this. THe generosity shown my GuardiansAngel is awesome. I have family members who have needed transplants so I know how hard it is to receive an organ, especially from a living donor. May God Bless you All!
