MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. — A Milledgeville man is getting a second chance at life -- through the gift of organ donation!
Pastor Tony Fraley is known for reading the Bible and serving people. He is a husband, a father, a mentor and, now, a double organ transplant survivor.
"If it had not been for [God], and my early upbringing of knowing Him," said Fraley. "I don't think I would have made it through."
For the last 23 years, Fraley has been facing congestive heart failure.
His medicine stopped working last year, so on November 11, 2020, he was admitted to Emory University Hospital.
