Reason 5 to Give Life is Paul. Paul was born with Reason 5 to Give Life is Paul.
Paul was born with cystic fibrosis and was never expected to live past childhood. By his late 20s, he struggled to breathe and his weight dropped to 108 pounds. In 2015, he received his first double lung transplant and fought his way back to strength. When a virus attacked his new lungs, he had to face that battle again. In 2017, Paul received a second double lung transplant and once more rebuilt his entire life from the ground up. Today he is 170 pounds, lifts six days a week, and is living proof of what organ donation makes possible. Paul shares his story so that donors can see the lives they save and so recipients can see what they are capable of.
