As many of you know my nursery does snow plowing. We added it to the mix for two reasons. It was a good way to keep more people working all year long. Many of my employees have been there more than 20 years and we used to offer full medical insurance. Those that received it then still get it now. We didn’t stop doing it because its something I feel would be wrong to take away. It also saved a persons life and I have felt responsible for making sure that continues.
Our foreman of our landscape crew became ill and the told him he needed a liver transplant. He had two years to live if he didn’t. Now I don’t know the percentages or how the list works for who gets it and who doesn’t but I do feel that a person with 100% medical coverage might move up in line. When the day came he received the call he drove to Barnes to get his new liver. He could have died but he had a chance to live. When he got there the kidney didn’t match as well as they hoped. There was a higher chance of rejection than they liked but he was getting close to the time he had no choice. But then a tragedy and miracle happened. A young man was in a car accident and died. He was an organ donor. And his liver was a perfect match. And because he had just died the new organ went from the young man to our foreman within hours.
The cost of the transplant and all the rehab pre and post was close to a million dollars. Something he may have never been able to pay. With his insurance his out of pocket was less than $10K. So that’s why we plow, to save lives. Not directly but because the extra income allows us to provide more things to our employees. Last night I got 2 hours sleep because we kept having unexpected snow. So every time we’d finish up, it would get covered up. Normally we just wait it out and THEN get it. But everyone screwed up the end. We got it done, everyone was exhausted. Why do I go out and not just send employees? That’s how it works in our company. If you can help, you help. I’m too old to hump it out there on the crews, or lift big things, but if I can help. So I do. Of course then I jet off to some tropical island and let them hold the ship. So there’s that too.

Have a name at auction and need more exposure? Send me an email. We Charge $10 per name per day. We may be able to help. If you have an auction you want to promote, email us for details.*All names chosen by us, Shane and Josh . (ie you click through and purchase a name you like) or an occasional paid listing. Everything we say is based on our own research or is opinion. Do your own due diligence. That means look it up yourself if you don’t think the stats or our opinion is correct. We hand choose the names but we are paid to make this list by both the auction houses, individuals that are auctioning names, and Godaddy affiliate links. Keep that in mind and only buy names that YOU think are good.
Thank you Shane for the story! I just signed up as an organ donor. For some reason I have never thought about this before, but it really was a super easy decision to make. To be able to save someone’s life after I’m dead, wow!
Here in Sweden we can do it online, and it only takes 1-2 minutes.
That’s awesome Tomas – could be a life saving decision.
