Video: Heart Recipient Writes Children’s Book

Receiving a heart transplant at just 2 years of age, Syriah wanted to give back. Working with her teacher at Northglenn High School, Syriah wrote a children’s book to help kids like her who were facing a transplant. Syriah presented that book along with others written by her classmates to the Transplant Center at Children’s Hospital Colorado. The hopes are that these patients will read these stories and realize that they’re not alone in this! This project was a part of our incredible Transplantation Science Program designed for students in middle and high school. Click here to learn more about this FREE course.
