Organ Donation and Youtube

Hey Everyone!

I think I’m in the mood to write a really long blog post, I just want to chat!

   To begin, this week is National Transplant Week. There has been lots of stories and experiences being talked about surrounding the topic of transplants during this week and you have no idea how much it means to me. I, myself, have a congenital heart condition called Hypo-Plastic Left Heart Syndrome, and eventually I will also need a transplant. To explain how much a transplant means to people like myself is impossible, it is our second chance at life. All of my family are on the organ donor list, and we are always trying to convince others to join as well. To rely on someone else to sadly pass away, for you to live yourself must be incredible. I have no idea who, or if anyone reads my blog. It’s just a place for me to talk, and I think it’s great. If you are reading this, and are not on the donor list, please hear me out! To know that if you were to die, a part of you would live on in someone else. If you were to die, someone out there would be able to live longer. If you were in the situation of needing an organ, wouldn’t you be begging on your hands and knees for one? Or if your son, daughter, mum, dad, sister, brother or whoever needed an organ to live, wouldn’t you be praying and praying that one would emerge for them? If you just think of who is on the other side, and how much it would mean to them if a generous person were to give up something they no longer need… To be in that situation yourself, you would see how much a second chance at life would mean to you. Thanks for reading my ramble, but go for it! You have nothing to lose, only more life for someone else to gain.

   The next thing I want to talk about has been pending with me for a long time. It’s very nerve wracking for me to do, but I have finally decided, I am going to do YouTube. It is something I am so interested in, and for some reason I have been so scared to do it. I think I was most scared about people in school, but I’ve just decided to let it go. I am 16 years old and I can do whatever hobby I like, so there! I am determined to keep at it, and I am so excited! My channel will just be a bit of everything, tags, vlogs, heart talk, and just whatever! Here’s a link to my channel so as you can be there when I upload my first video: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT8Lse_gbT-3x3v8pZTZqgg

That’s just another check in, any comments leave down below! Thanks,
