Donate Life PSA With Erik Compton
Nearly 124,000 people including children are waiting for organ transplants in the United States. That is a crazy amount of people, which is why it is important that you make the choice to donate life.
In the “Play Through with Erik Compton to Donate Life” PSA, Erik Compton, a PGA TOUR golfer and two-time heart transplant recipient, raises awareness for organ donation and encourages Americans to become organ donors. He inspires viewers by reminding them, “You too can donate life.”
In the PSA, Erik joins news anchor and kidney donor, Phillip Palmer, and a group of organ transplant recipients, including professional soccer player Samuel Gordon, and athletes Eric Drear, Cristian Sanchez, Nick Wallace, and Jennifer Golden. Each individual shares their personal experience with organ donations and explains that they are alive and healthy today because people chose to be organ donors.
Donate Life has found that 90% of Americans say that they support organ donation, however only 30% are aware of the correct steps needed to be taken in order to become a donor.
The PSA directs people who would like to become organ donors to visit Donate Life America for more information about donation, how to register in your state’s donor registry and, importantly, don’t forget to tell your family about your decision. Discussing organ donation with family members helps ensure organ donation wishes are honored.
April is Donate Life month, help someone today.

I bought Chicken Basil rolls and Veggie rolls from their Chinese line. They are suppose to be like egg rolls. Just put them on a cookie sheet and bake them in the oven.
I really liked the veggie rolls and the Chicken Basil was okay. I honestly think they would of been excellent if I had deep fried them and I just felt they weren’t crunchy enough on the outside, but inside was still very good.
You can try the new World Menu now at Stop and Shop. Prices range from $3.49-$7.99. What will you be trying?
Making Chicken Stir Fry (First Time) #HormelFamily
Disclosure: I’ve partnered with Hormel Foods as part of the Hormel Foods Extended Family Blogger Program. Throughout the year I’ll be receiving product, coupons, giveaways and promotions. However, no payment was given or expected for posting about the program, and as always, all opinions given here are fully my own.
I admit that I get stuck in my ways and make the same things over and over again, but I decided to do something a little different and make chicken stir fry for dinner.
It was something I have never made before and was hoping it would turn out really well. I decided to use House Of Tsang Sweet and Sour Sauce.
House Of Tsang is from the Hormel brand and was designed by well known chef David Tsang to bring the flavors of Asia into your kitchen.
I thought the stir fry turned out great, I added tons of fresh veggies and added a little extra sweet and sour sauce for flavor.
We paired it with rice and a few homemade California Rolls and it was so yummy.
Have you ever tried House of Tsang before or stir fry?
This is one dish I will definitely be making again.

DryPro Waterproof Cast Cover Review
Disclosure: No formal compensation was received for this post. A product was provided for my review.
My daughter recently broke her thumb and has a small cast on her arm to let the bone heal properly. Since she is a active young lady, they decided against a splint and went with a cast. It doesn’t bother her she actually loves it.
When bath time comes though it’s a little more complicated. Her cast has to be dry at all times and the bag we have been putting on only helps so much. I have to help her and her arm has to stay up the whole time, it’s exhausting for both of us.
I heard about DryPro through a email and had to try it.
DryPro waterproof cast cover will allow your children to jump in the pool or simply take a long-awaited shower without fear of damaging their cast. The vacuum seal, waterproof technology is patented and created by a doctor. It is the most-advanced and effective protective gear for medical device wearers available on the market today. Once DryPro is properly applied over a cast, the cast can be fully submerged underwater without the possibility of leakage. A great product for anyone with prosthetic legs and those who wear long-term medical devices, such as PICC lines too.
When we first got it my daughter ripped it open she was so excited to try it. It looked really big buy the opening to put her cast was small, so we were a little confused at first. We made it work and she was able to submerge her whole arm in the bath.
The arm hole is small to protect it’s tight seal. You put it over your cast and pump the air out of the DryPro until it’s sealed tight.
We also received a can of relief spray, to help the relief f itches under the cast and odors.
You can order a DryPro waterproof cast cover and relief spray here.

I learned all about the importance of banking cord blood when I was pregnant. all 3 of my pregnancies were hard on me, my body and the baby. At one point my doctor even said that 2 of my children would not make it or be born with birth defects, which was just crushing. I didn’t want to take any chances, so we looked into banking just in case. Luckily the doctors were wrong, but I am glad that we took the chance and banked our daughters blood.
