TEMPLE, Texas Two Central Texas kidney donors and their recipients held a virtual reunion on April 6 during National Donate Life month.
Just before thanksgiving, the lives of Iris, Timothy, Henry, and Brooklyn intersected in a way they never imagined.
Iris Huff was in desperate need of a kidney. Her adopted son Timothy Huff, a veteran wanted to help but he wasn t a match. I feel like it s service. It s a self sacrifice for the people that you love, Timothy Huff said.
The same goes for Henry Sander who was waiting for a kidney and Brooklyn Wynveen, a registered donor, also a veteran who wanted to help but wasn t a match.
