My story: In 1992, Deanna Arnold received a liver transplant. Two years later she participated in her 1st athletic competition. The 1994 National Transplant Games in Atlanta, GA. Marc Dewey also went to the games to experience complete and total health that year. The two met in the bowling alley at the Games in Salt Lake City in 1996, it was as husband and wife.

My message to the world: Marc and Deanna want people to live life to the fullest and learn to appreciate the little things. Life is something they are thankful for every day and never take for granted.
