So today I got a letter from Iowa Lions Eye Bank to provide a letter of Gratitude to the donor family. It is something they are requiring me to do but its also something id be very willing to do after all the cornea that was transplanted had to come from somewhere and such acts of gratitude should not go unrecognized. Anyone recieving any sort of organ donation should thank the donor for their generosity simply ignoring the fact that some family had to loose a loved one to save your life is well beyond the point of rudeness.

The Note of gratitude is as follows

“Thank You so very much for your generous gift of vision. This gift is saving me from Keratoconus. I am so very sorry for your loss but rest assured your gift will not go to waste. It may have been a tragedy but at the very least some good was able to come from it.

Even the darkest night will end and then the sun will rise

Sincerely

Jeremiah Wenzel”
