March, National Eye Donor Month

Shortly after the one year anniversary of Christina-Taylor Green's tragic death, the Eye Bank Association of America flew me out to Tucson to interview her father, John Green. Despite the recent loss, John was able to communicate the importance of cornea donation as he and his wife had donated the corneas of young Christina and benefited several recipients in the process.  As an eye and organ donor, I am honored to be part of such a worthwhile cause.

During my brief stay in Tucson, I had some time to walk around the stunningly scenic grounds of the Westin La Paloma take in the unfamiliar beauty of the arid west.
