May is Vision Health Month, so we are shining some light on our cornea transplant recipients and the gift of sight they received.
Meet Bobbi! Bobbi works at BC Transplant as an In-Hospital Coordinator for the Fraser Valley region. As part of the Organ Donation and Hospital Development team, she supports organ donation and transplant efforts on the front line — while also personally understanding the impact of transplantation as a cornea transplant recipient herself.
Bobbi shares:
“Because of the gift of a cornea transplant, I still get to lace up my skates for ringette, coach my daughter, hike the trails I love, and care for my three beautiful girls with independence and joy. I was even able to drive halfway across the country with them this past summer — making memories I will never take for granted.
Every day, I am reminded that organ donation is more than medicine; it is humanity at its very best. It is both a privilege and an honour to work in organ donation, serving my community while carrying a deep gratitude for the generosity of strangers who give others the chance to keep living the lives they love.”
Thank you, Bobbi, for sharing your story and for your passion and dedication to organ donation and transplant. Your kindness, compassion, and approachable nature make a meaningful difference both in the workplace and in hospitals across the Fraser Valley.
