Donate Life Float at the 2010 Rose Bowl Parade

by mmcphillips 20. January 2010 11:01

Donna Brooten of MedActionPlan.com and MyMedSchedule.com joined the Donate Life groups from around the country for the Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena on New Year's Day. The float, New Life Rises, honors the new life that emerges when donors make the gift of life possible through organ, eye and tissue donations. Twenty-four riders are on the float representing transplant recipients and deceased donor families. Floragraphs, made of herbs, spices, and floral materials illustrate the loved ones who gave life to those in need. Donna says, "It was an inspiring event, very humbling and hopefully this float, seen on the parade route and on national television, made more people aware of how critical the need is for organ, tissue and eye donations."

To see KTLA’s Rose Parade broadcast featuring the Donate Life float, go to this page and click on Part 1, where Donate Life appears at the 13:15 mark.

When you take 15 pills twice a day, it is a big help keeping me on track

MyMedSchedule received another great recommendation, this time from Barry in Norcross, GA: "I recently had a kidney transplant and was introduced to MyMedSchedule.com at the hospital. When you take 15 pills twice a day, it is a big help keeping me on track. And I even get an email reminder to my Blackberry when it is time to take my pills."

The Latest Testimonial for MyMedSchedule Comes from the Dales of Orlando, FL

“I have given MyMedSchedule.com brochures to some of the nurses at the hospital since they were impressed with our print-outs. I no longer fill out those long drug list sheets, I just ask them to make a copy of my sheet and say ‘see attached.’ This has been a blessing to both of us—it makes med updates easy, too.”
