Kidney Transplantation

Abstract

Help Others With Love (HOWL) is the positive message of kindness conveyed in this story about Howl the Owl. Howl's Grandpa Bob has a kidney disease and needs a transplant to receive a new and healthy kidney. Since his kidneys are sick and cannot do the work they are meant to, Grandpa Bob must do dialysis treatment until he can find a new kidney. Howl is curious about where his grandpa goes for dialysis treatment and how it works, so when Grandpa Bob invites him to come along to the dialysis clinic Howl happily accepts. Howl and his family also help Grandpa Bob in his search for a new kidney by posting on social media, displaying a sign on their car, and presenting at Howl's school about organ donation. Eventually Grandpa Bob receives his gift of life from a donor hero who was able to Help Others With Love.
