We watched “Seven Pounds” the other day. While it pained me to see Will Smith’s character so desperate to redeem his mistake, it was easy to sympathize with him.
After the movie, my mind was reeling about the lives improved – if not all together saved! – by organ donors.

For the record, Lane and I are organ donors. My only stipulation is that I don’t want my ovaries/eggs taken. I may not be able to stop embryonic stem cell research on a global scale, but it darn sure won’t happen with any of my eggs!

Anyway, I started thinking about all of the potential lives touched by Nathan’s organs. He was a healty, athletic young man, and it makes me smile to think of others’ lives being better because of him.
