Transplanting eyes

Volunteering at St. John’s can produce some real interesting events. Yesterday morning a man stopped at the information desk and sat a red box on the desk. He asked for directions to the surgery department. On the box it said, “Human Eyes For Transplanting.“ You can imagine those eyes having been removed from a dead patient a short time ago and in a short time they will be in the eye sockets of another person. Think of all the things that those eyes of the previous person will be seeking. Such things as that makes volunteering worthwhile.
