| Jeff ROmanoff was the recipient of the kidney...They put out a call to the 501st event earlier this year at a Convention and asked if any one was willing to be tested for a donor kidney. Eric Seaman had seen jeff in pain during the event and submitted to a match test and he matched.!. . They met at an event in earlier this year in Philadelphia and the transplant happened on April 3rd of this year at the CLevland Clinic. Eric literally saved Jeff's life...
They showed about 5 501st members in costume and there was a Darth Vader, a Biker Scout, a JAngo Fett, (Sorry not a Bob Fett, my bad...) and a Sand Trooper and a Storm Trooper there......
Way to go guys and Thank God for a match and have a speedy recovery from the surgery!
