A retired mailman made a special delivery Thursday for organ donor families at the Center for Organ Recovery and Education, known as CORE.
While Saturday is Valentine’s Day, it’s also National Organ Donor Day.
So, Kevin Molchan put on his old mail carrier uniform and delivered Valentine’s Day cards to those families.
“I feel so lucky that I received, and it’s only because of families like you that I’m still here,” he told one group of families.
Molchan told Channel 11 he was sick for years and needed both a new heart and kidney.
One day early last year, he got a call that changed his life.
“Approximately a month later, I got the call to go to the hospital. Got a call at 2 a.m., I got to Allegheny General (Hospital), and they had a heart and kidney for me,” he said.”
