Dan lost his son, Brad, in a car accident in 1985. Brad was 7 years old. At that time, Dan made the choice to donate Brad's organs.
"A month or two before he had passed, we had watched a program on E TV about organ donation. Shortly after the program, Brad made the comment that, if something were to happen to him, that would be the thing to do," Dan says.
A few years after his decision to donate, Dan himself found out that he was in need of a life-saving kidney transplant.
"I had a disease called Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). I went on a low-protein diet at that time and kept my kidney's going for a couple of years. But, it got to the point where I had to go on dialysis.
