In July, we hosted an event featuring Samuel Kirton, a survivor of a bilateral lung transplant. He shared his story, answered the community’s questions, and inspired us all to make every breath count. 

Watch Samuel’s full talk below. To view or follow along to a transcript of the recording, please click here. To attend advocacy events like this one, please sign up for our support group mailing list.

We’d like to thank our special guest speaker, Samuel Kirton, for sharing his story. Another big thank you goes to our dedicated volunteer, Parshwa Parekh, for all his help preparing the transcript. Please stay tuned for his upcoming blogs and insights featuring highlights from community Q&A’s and the community forum!
