Episode #1129 | Added March 29, 2012

She's a bubbly 20-year-old whose life took an unexpected turn last summer, when she was diagnosed with a degenerative lung disease. Now Hélène Campbell awaits a double-lung transplant, which could take up to two years. And she's making some noise about it... using her creativity and energy to raise awareness for organ donation – even catching the attention of Justin Bieber and Ellen DeGeneres. Her message: organ donation can save lives, including her own. Let's put it in Context.
