Three days before Valentine’s Day, a Florida woman gave her
husband the most special gift of all – life.
On Monday, Melissa DeGeso-Jones had her kidney transplanted
at Florida Hospital in Orlando to her husband, James Jones, who has been
suffering from renal failure.
"(I’m) giving as much love as I have,"
DeGeso-Jones told Orlando’s News 13 before the surgery. "It's completely
from my heart. James has said things to me about it being a huge sacrifice, and
I said, 'It's not; it's an investment. This is our life. It's not just your
life that I'm giving, too. There can't be an ‘us’ without it.' So, that's what
it's about."
