Double Lung Transplant Allowing Opera Singer to Sing Again

Charity Tilleman-Dick loves to sing. However, she knew that without a second double-lung transplant she would likely never sing again and die very soon. Then, at 27 years of age, she not only received the needed 2nd transplant but is already back singing and singing well. She is another great example of why the Tennessee Organ Donation Foundation, Inc. encourages everyone to register as an organ and tissue donor.
