Ernesto actually worked in the CCU when doing his nurse training & later on as a staff nurse when qualified. He'd even scrubbed up for organ retrievals never imagining one day he would be a recipient. 24 years ago Ernesto received the #gift of a #heart ❤️ https://t.co/m89yD8cB4u

Wow! That’s another bonus year. Which means I’m a teenager! Still can’t believe it’s 13 years since I received the call. Still following the best instruction ever ‘Go out and enjoy life’ #OrganDonation
