SEATTLE –  At least 2,000 children across the country are waiting right now for an organ transplant. Their anxious parents usually have no idea if or when that organ will come, or if it will come in time. 

From life on the waiting list to the drama of surgery, see how organ transplants can change young lives in a one-hour special, Gifts of Life: A Children’s Healthlink Special with Jean Enersen.

You'll experience the frustration of life on the waiting list, the excitement of a highly-coordinated team effort when an organ becomes available, and the joy when the waiting is over.

Gifts of Life: A Children’s Healthlink Special with Jean Enersen airs Saturday at 9 p.m. on KING 5 and on Monday at 8 p.m. on NorthWest Cable News.
