After a choking incident caused cardiac arrest Jessica and Anthony's daughter, Caitlyn, was in the ICU on life support. Making a tragic situation all the more difficult were representatives from an organ donation company pressuring these heart broken parents to allow the hospital to induce cardiac death so that their daughter's organs could be harvested, because Caitlyn had elected to be an organ donor when obtaining her driver's license as a teenager. 

Jessica and Anthony share their troubling story in an effort to bring transparency to a situation that nobody who checks that box as a teenager could ever imagine happening, and how they're working with state legislators to make sure that when future donors give consent that they're actually informed about what they're consenting to, and what the process actually entails for those we love after we pass.
