Honor Walk for Cadence Joanne Tilton 2/10/2023

[@allypittman]

Thank you for your kind words. We are coming up on her Angelversary soon. That day is still so imprinted in me. All of this is still new and feels like it just happened. I’ve been on pause since. The little light of happiness I see though is the fact that she saved 3 lives! By her own choice. I’m such a proud momma but I miss Cadence terribly.

[@susanhorne2143]

The first year is the worst. It will get easier to bear as time passes. We never forget them, they walk beside us every day. God bless. 🧡

[@jodeming5088]

Thank you for her gifts to others. I am so sorry for your loss. May her memory be a blessing.

You'll be surprised if you keep talking to her, she can hear, and see you PLEASE don't stop telling her what you need,she is going to make it happen 😢. With all due respect, I Love Ya, and GOD IS THE BEST 💐🌹🍷👍🏾🙏🏾

My uncle received a kidney and pancreas on his 50th birthday. He lived with Type 1 diabetes his entire life. Just when we thought we were going to lose him he got the call. I can't thank the parents of the 16y/o boy who, in their grief decided to donate their son's organs. We enjoyed 16 more years with my uncle who, in the end, we would never have had. I am an organ donor to pay back the incredible gift my uncle was given ❤❤

[@jamesw3017]

I'm alive today because someone gave blood. At birth I had to have a total blood transfusion. This was in 1968 was given last rites as I wasn't expected to survive the journey from a small country town to a hospital in Sydney that had the ability to perform this procedure. These days it is common but back than advances in medical science and funding in country hospitals was almost non existence

[@marciapenney2286]

Thank you so much to your family and your beautiful baby girl! In times so hard ppl often don’t even want to be approached by the organ donor team. So please everyone sign your donor card & talk to your family & loved ones! About everything you want if the worst happens. It won’t make kissing you easier, but it make make your loved ones heart feel a little lighter knowing you live on & have helped another live! We lost my Dad much to young. He was a paramedic & always made sure we knew what he wanted. We thought because of his illness they couldn’t use any of his organs. I’m a nurse & forgot the biggest organ we have. Skin! He was able to donate a great amount to the burn unit & of all the things… my blind Dad was able to donate his eyes for a person to see for the 1st time. (There are parts that can be “your bodies issue”) It still makes me smile. Beautiful Cadence saved 3 lives!! Thank you!!! To Mom, Dad, family & friends. My prayers are with you & thank you from those who can’t! Rest peacefully Cadence! 🙏🏻🪽🌈🤗
