Dear Mr and Mrs Stacey,
you don't know me and I didn't know Elaine, as we haven't lived in St Giles for very long. However, I was told about her by the mums of the teenagers who attend the new youth group I am running for the parish. She was clearly a truly wonderful and inspirational young woman.
I read in your blog that Elaine donated her heart. I am a consultant cardiologist who works closely with the transplant team at Harefield, near to Chalfont St Giles. When I went in to work one day last week, there was amazement and joy amongst all the transplant staff and surgical team because there had been not one but two heart transplants over the weekend - this is virtually unheard of nowadays, as we have so few donors - we see so many young people die on the transplant waiting list. I cannot tell you how much it means that Elaine made such a donation - perhaps one of these two operations was her heart. We know, as Christians, that through Jesus Christ, life comes from death, but we often undertand this only in spiritual terms. What Elaine so generously gave means that in actual human, physical terms, life has come from death - and although I am a rather "muscular" Christian, I have no doubt that this is life in and through Christ. What a great miracle, indeed. Thankyou so much that you brought up such a faithful, loving woman that she had given thought to benefitting others by her own death. If only more could be like her.
God Bless you,
Shelley
