firk had a spirit about her that were drawn to her and she had a caring for people that you know it was magical I knew I was not doing well I had a few weeks - maybe a month to live I did not think I was going to live when I went with Brooke to get her license she didn't even hesitate it was an automatic yes we know it was something she would have wanted to do we spend a lot of time during the case communicating with the family supporting the families updating the families 24 to 48 hours could be an extremely long time for someone whose loved one is laying in a hospital bed and they can't see everything that's going on behind the scenes hey guy Anna its Ronnie with UW organ and tissue donation when I call the nurse and I asked them what's going on with the potential donor and she will relate to me it's a really pertinent clinical information what I will do is I will log in to their electronic medical record that we have remote access to and then I'll call the medical director to establish eligibility for that patient my role when I get to the hospital is connecting with those staff that have been taking care of the donor patients the reason that we huddle with the entire medical staff before we go in and talk to a family is to make sure that we're all on the same page so we want to find out from the position what information has been shared with the family how are they handling the news of the prognosis do they understand brain death or understand that their loved one is not going to be able to recover from the injuries that person there is not just a body full of organs it's really a person it's a patient is a very important thing it's very important to to coordinate with other people who can also address the needs of the family and address the needs of that patient and their comfort and at the same time optimize the organ donation process unfortunately their loved one is not going to survive the injury that they've sustained and so we want to do is give them an opportunity to make something more out of that through helping others through donation and the reason that we can feel so confident going in and talking about that is because we have had donor families come back to us on a regular basis and say you know donation didn't just save the lives of the recipients it saved my life when people ask us all the time how we work in this job and how we do this I say I don't make the painful or awful tragic things happen I try to make them as good as they can be as stress-free as calm as respectful and try to make something good come out of something that was really chicken awful for somebody it's very fulfilling it's a rewarding work you can see people you change lives with the gifts that these donor families give our surgical recovery coordinator is responsible for the preparation and eventually the packaging of the organs I'm thinking about the donor family the potential recipients the entire time once we arrive to the lab all of our baggages pre-pack we can technically leave at a moment's notice at any point in time during the day or night it's a little bit of a spiritual experience because we both think we're very excited by the patient who's gonna get that organ and that family is so excited but at the same time we we know how much suffering is from the donor family we do this thing called a moment of silence where we encourage the family to give us some information about their loved ones so that we can pass it along in the operating room just prior to beginning the recovery procedure to let everybody know that this is a meaningful event for the family and that they care about these transplant outcomes most rewarding is getting a great organ a new and beautiful organ I would say that we bring back to our recipient who it's gonna live longer in order for the successful transplant happen there really is a little probably more than 100 or 200 steps that everything needs to go well so I usually try not to involve in the emotional side really try to put everything away and I can't focus on the surgery itself you know when I see that transplant patients after the surgery of course you know I don't see one person but they feel like a two persons after I had this heart in the Brooks heart you know doctors asked me how did I feel I go you know like I can breathe I can breathe again Wow a simple thing like that to give the life to someone else with it with an organ and especially the heart and there's no doubt in my mind that Brooke would be yeah you know she would be extremely pleased about that what donation does for families who are wrapped in that tragedy the worst day of their lives what donation gives to them is priceless it gives them hope too when it comes to donor families it never ceases to amaze me the strength that they have beyond losing their loved ones with a strength that they have to make this decision in such a terrible terrible time but then beyond that to take it upon themselves to decide that this is their life's mission to make sure that the rest of the world knows how important organ tissue and eye donation is I can't meet a donor family and not be in awe because they are just so man they're just so strong you you
