Father & Son Kidney Transplant Pioneers




Terry Ryan was only 12 years old when his father Marshall Ryan gave his kidney in an effort to save his son's life.

As with most transplant families, the Ryans were completely consumed with creating a future for Terry, a bright young man who was much loved by all who experienced life at Childrens Hospital together.

Terry and his father are gone now, but as this article describes, the bond that is created during a transplant is one of life's true miracles... as significant as the extension of life itself.
