Annual Report - Iowa Donor Network
Connections Iowa Donor Network IN THIS ISSUE PAGE 2 Suzanne Conrad reflects on a subject close to her heart—living donors. PAGE 3 The 2014 IDN Annual Report honors tissue and organ donors and offers a thank you to those who have provided generous financial support in the past year. PAGE 11 Iowa Donor Network has a number of activities planned across the state in conjunction with National Donate Life Month during April. Transforming Lives Through Organ and Tissue Donation Representing Iowa on the Donate Life float escort team were Carla Cochran and her son, Ted, to whom she donated a kidney. They stand in front of some of the float’s 72 floragraph images that honored deceased organ donors from throughout the U.S. THE WALK OF LIFE MOTHER, SON SHARE AWARENESS MESSAGE ON GRANDEST OF STAGES Understandably, Ted Cochran has always viewed his mother Carla as a hero. Ted was in and out of hospitals as a child dealing with complications caused by chronic renal failure. Throughout it, Carla was there, ensuring Ted was comfortable and cared for. And in 2006, when a kidney transplant was required to save Ted’s life, it was Carla who stepped up and served as the living donor. So it was especially gratifying for Ted this New Year’s Day, to see his mother recognized as the hero she is in front of millions during the annual Festival of Roses Parade in Pasadena, Calif. Ted and Carla represented the state of Iowa on the Donate Life America float. In addition to Ted, who represented recipients and rode on the float, and Carla, who represented living donors and walked the route beside the float, more than 70 florographs honoring deceased organ donors adorned the float. “From my perspective, it was the ride of a lifetime,” Ted says. “I was not only honored to represent Iowa, but sharing the journey with my mother was special.” CONTINUED ON PAGE 11 A Publication of Iowa Donor Network | Spring 2015 Iowa Donor Network ABOUT IOWA DONOR NETWORK Iowa Donor Network (IDN) is a non-profit organization that operates as the primary contact for organ, tissue and eye donation services for the state of Iowa.

I cannot read or recount the story of Ted and Carla Cochran without reflecting on my own experience as a living donor. More than a decade ago I was given the opportunity to provide the gift of life, in the form of one of my kidneys, to Tom Jorgenson. Tom was in desperate need of a transplant to save his life and I was a match. And as the match, I felt a responsibility to provide Tom with this gift. But even with that deep-seeded belief that it was my duty, it was not a decision I made on a whim. It required thoughtful consideration and my arrival at the decision didn’t come without significant worry. Looking back, though, I cannot imagine not choosing to donate. As advocates of organ, tissue and eye donation, we focus a lot of our energy on donations from those who have passed. This is understandable, as those who have left us (so many times too soon) often provide gifts—hearts, lungs, livers, corneas and more—that living donors simply can’t. And many of those most in need of a transplant can only be saved by deceased donors. But there are thousands who could benefit from the gift of a living donor. I hope in reading the story of Ted and Carla you will give consideration to the idea of offering the gift of life while you’re still alive to see the benefits it offers.

SUPPORTING IOWA DONOR NETWORK Iowa Donor Network relies upon generous support from private donors to facilitate public awareness. In this issue of Connections is an envelope allowing you to easily and conveniently make a contribution. You can designate your contribution to the Iowa Donor Registry, Donor Family Support Services or the Area of Greatest Need. Thank you for your consideration! Spring 2015 CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Carla agrees. She says it was an exhilarating and emotional time... even if it was a little bit cooler than anticipated. “I was very surprised that we were selected to go,” Carla says. “And when you hear you’re going to California you expect sunshine and warm weather, but there was none of that. It was in the 30s.” But the chill in the air didn’t damper the experience. Carla says there was one moment in particular that stood out. “Again, we were cold the whole time leading up to the parade,” she recalls. “We were up early to get ready and there was no sunshine on the street we started on. But as we got going and we turned down Colorado Boulevard it was one of the most incredible things I’ve ever experienced.” The street serves as the starting point for floats on the parade route and Carla says, as they turned to begin their journey, the sun emerged and she was overcome with emotion. “It was unreal. We turned the corner and the sun was beaming, the florographs on the float were glistening and everyone in the crowd was smiling and cheering,” she says. “I just embraced that feeling.” Ted says he sat back on the float The Donate Life 2015 entry “Never Ending Story” and watched his mother receive the attention she deserved. “She must have high-fived thousands of people and hugged hundreds of others,” he says. “Watching her have the time of her life was amazing for me.” Carla says she wasn’t going to miss the chance to revel in the festivities. “I immediately went to the crowd,” she says. “I don’t know if I was really supposed to, but it’s what felt right. I just hope that the float, and all of us who participated, left an impression and had an impact on those in attendance and those watching on television.” As part of its public awareness efforts, Donate Life has entered a float in the Festival of Roses Parade annually since 2004. This year’s float was themed “Never Ending Story.” “Every donation of organs, eyes and tissue begins an inspiring story that lives on forever,” said Bryan Stewart, chairman of the Donate Life Rose Parade Float Committee, in a pre-parade press release. “In their passing, deceased donors open up a world of health, sight and mobility to people in need. The gifts from living donors release family members, friends and even strangers to live more fully. “Grateful transplant recipients are freed to contribute to their families, communities and future generations. Through its endless power to save, heal and transform lives, organ, eye and tissue donation is truly ‘The Never-Ending Story’.” PLENTY PLANNED DURING NATIONAL DONATE LIFE MONTH During the month of April, Iowa Donor Network will be hosting events around the state to raise awareness of the importance of organ, tissue and eye donation. The events coincide with National Donate Life Month. As of January 2015, nearly 124,000 men, women and children are awaiting organ transplants in the United States.
