From CNN by Brian Stelter:
On this weekend of religious celebrations, let’s begin with a story of sacrifice and rebirth. Our narrator is Richard Roth, CNN’s senior UN correspondent, the last remaining original employee of CNN. Roth asks: “How do you thank someone who gets you off dialysis and saves your life?”
Roth is recovering after a successful kidney transplant. His donor, whom he calls his “heroine,” is Samira Jafari, deputy managing editor of CNN’s investigations unit. The story, he says, “should be about her, and how urgent the need is for live donors to ease the suffering of the over 100,000 desperately seeking an organ to survive.”
