Newswise — This November 11, and every Veterans Day, Americans organize parades and ceremonies to honor all veterans who have served, and those currently serving, in the U.S. military.But Julie Donohue paid tribute to one veteran in her own special way - she donated a kidney to Army veteran, Mark Klayman. 'I was touched by Mark's military service,' said Donohue, who also noted that Mark was the same age as her husband. 'I thought, I'm healthy, why not, I'm going to do this.'Julie heard about veterans in need of kidney donations through the non-profit organization, Donor Outreach for Veterans or DOVE, which matches living donors and veterans awaiting transplant.
