Operation Heart Lung Transplant Pillow

I wanted to share a more light-hearted and fun post.

It may seem odd, but one way Tasha always wanted to memorialize her transplant was through the organ pillows in each recovery unit at the Cleveland Clinic.

With the help of some extraordinary nurses, I could track down both the heart and double lung pillows.

Here are some stats on HLTs. Nationally, there are only 100 HLTs, as it is a rare surgery, and having compatible donors is even rarer.

We feel incredibly blessed to have been part of the exclusive club.
