In Key Club, we had speakers about donating organs. It was sad hearing about the 17 year old boy who died. The speakers are his parents. I was really touched even though I heard this story last year. His twin sister was there too. What made it even harder for me was that today is their birthday. I died a little inside. They asked her how she felt without her brother. I wasn't surprised when she started crying. Truth is, my eyes were also getting all watery too. But I stayed strong. I could tell it wasn't easy for her. Some people also cried. It really was sad. Then, a freshmen fainted when we were about to start the video. That was scary. We all panicked, but she ended up waking up. That was a relief. R.I.P. Matthew Zaragoza Van Gelderen. You are in a better place now and changed the lives of so many people, including me.
