Video Segment - Interview of Janet - 7 May 2011

On May 7th, Janet and her parents were interviewed by a family friend, Linda Humphrey, who writes and contributes articles for the Senior Life newspaper. In that interview, Janet also had the privilege to hear from two other recent transplant recipients and friends of Linda's. One was a Jim Davis (a kidney transplant recipient) and a Bill Hahn (a kidney and pancreas transplant recipient).

The information and encouragement and spirit shared was invaluable. Bill Hahn also made a video which I am linking here.

This one, a 5:10 version, Janet McCrary: Waiting on a Miracle, focuses on Janet and her family. It can be found at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0N2le3qTaBk

There is another 9:59 version also available on You Tube. It includes additional segments from the interview.

The interview article should be available in the Senior Life newspaper sometime between June 3rd - June 7th. Senior Life newspaper can be found at: all libraries, most CVS stores, and the Senior Life offices in Viera (on Murrell Blvd just off Wickham Rd.) at 7331 Office Park Place, Suite 300, Viera, FL.
