I sent my friends and family little cards with some forget-me-not seeds to plant in memory of my donor... it also contained a poem which reads...
Thank you for the gift of life, for letting me be me,
For all that I can know by words, and all that I can see,
For all the music I can hear and all the songs I sing,
For all the joy that comes to me and all the joy I bring,
For all the food that I can taste and all the sweet scents I smell,
For all the loved ones I can touch, who love and wish me well,
For all the beauty of the world, ever fresh and new,
I don't know whom else I can thank, and so I'm thanking you

I found it on the internet, but I think it says it all...
Here are some pictures of the cards.
My Donor and their family are never far from my thoughts and will always hold a special place in my heart x

What an awesome idea, not only so that your donor will be remembered, but a way to raise OD awareness.
