  • UMC’s first-ever Honor Walk recognized the final journey of a remarkable young man. Hundreds of nurses, physicians and other UMC team members lined up across the hospital to honor Michael Sigler, an 18-year-old organ donor who selflessly gave the gift of life following a tragic motorcycle crash.
    Thank you, Michael, for being a true hero.

    I received a kidney transplant nine months ago. It’s kept me working and most importantly of all it’s kept me on this earth to spend time with my eight year old son and my beautiful wife. I have been in rejection for several months now and as my body weakens and my kidney function decreases I pray I can be as courageous as those who have given of them selves especially the one who gave me more time with my family. I will give of me when it’s time. I will not break the chain.

      Yes my heart shattered. I lost my fiancé to COVID last year in April and I used to regret that couldn’t go see him while he was like that...but to see the soul crushing PAIN this FAMILY is experiencing I just CANNOT imagine. Concurrently, Micheal is clearly LOVED by so many and he TRULY is a real life angel. I pray that all is well with the family. He soul is free, he truly is at peace. Grieving is for those of still in this physical incarnation.....our loved ones are ALWAYS all around us and just as his loving father said...he WILL see him again. My God, this broke my heart.

Seeing something as profound and amazing as this just has me in awe. This really shows the kindness and the care of the family. To be willing to lose someone to save another. Truly amazing.

    I lost my mom unexpectedly in 2019 and it really destroyed me mentally and I'm still heartbroken to this day. I imagine losing your own child is probably more devastating because it's the parents that are supposed to go first not them. I don't have any kids yet but I hope I never have to experience this in the future.

Strangely , it's people like Michael, Nightbirdie and a host of others who are doing all the teaching. They teach us to live and how to die and how to give. To all the family and friends , my deepest condolences....and to the rest of us. Let's keep believing in angels and doing our best to be one too. Love and peace. BRETR❤🙏

    I personally believe everyone should consider being an organ donor because your organ donations will help someone else in need of whatever organs you donate your donations matter the most it may not seem like a big deal, but trust me, it will mean the whole world to another family, knowing that you have decided to be an organ donor. I’m sure the recipient will be very very grateful for what you have done.
