Samantha's Story - 4 min (Donate Life Illinois)

In this video, donor family member Tim Joos recounts the tragic loss of his teenage daughter, Samantha, who helped save the lives of others through tissue donation. Samantha was in a collision while driving in a rainstorm. This short video emphasizes safe driving precautions, as well as the importance of making a decision about donation and sharing it with your family. In a Driver's Education context, this video lends itself to inclusion within a lesson on driving in hazardous conditions.
