April marks National Donate Life Month. With the waiting list of people in need of a transplant nationwide continuing to grow, the impact of organ donation is significant. The Bryant family can attest to that.

For his fifth birthday, Nolan received the gift of a lifetime — a new liver — allowing him to live life to the fullest. Host Sharon Martin sits down with his mother, Mandy Bryant, as she shares their family’s inspiring story.

Melissa Coulter, a nurse manager in Enloe’s Intensive Care Unit and Neuro-Trauma-Surgical Intensive Care Unit, and Sarah Harris, Director of Donation Development for Donor Network West, join the conversation to provide insight on the vital need for organ donors.
