Alice was a thirty year old woman with three children
She became ill during her third pregnancy with kidney disease
The doctors believed her high blood pressure had damaged her kidneys
He husband was killed in a car accident soon after the birth of their third child
He mother stepped in and helped Alice rise the kids
Things got progressively worse and Alice became seriously ill frequently
Eventually her kidney function fell dangerously low, she had to start dialysis to survive
Spending four hours on a machine three days a week
Somehow she still managed to work full time and look after her kids
But the dialysis regime was tiring so she signed up for a kidney transplant
None of her family matched so she would have to rely on an anonymous donor
It was her only hope for a normal life
She was told it might take five years and it could be a long struggle
She did not know if she could wait for years under dialysis
She was desperate to find a donor and contacted the local TV news company
By coincidence they were preparing a story about organ donation and she agreed to be interviewed
A week after the TV program featuring Alice was aired, she got the call, a match from a living donor
She would never meet the person giving up a kidney for her, they had requested anonymity
Alice was nervous about the surgery but it was her only chance of survival
She prayed hard as she was wheeled down towards the operating room
Please let me survive this so I can get back to raising my kids
Please give me my strength back so I can earn the rent money
Please give blessings to the person donating a kidney for me
James checked out two days after his surgery
He was little sore but would soon recover to live a normal life with one kidney
Alice had a to stay a few days longer to be sure there were no rejection issues
Alice was excited to have a new life and the doctors said everything was looking good
Alice was signing papers to check out of the hospital
Her medical insurance had a huge deductible so she was fearing the worst
Then she learned that somebody had anonymously paid all her medical bills
When she got home there was a new car in the driveway
The key was on the dash and the title was in her name
In the glove box she found a parcel containing $100,000 in cash
