Team Royal geared up for Donate Life\u2019s Jersey Day!<\/p><\/div>\n

Staff from across RBWH donned their favourite sports jerseys on Friday 2 September for Donate Life\u2019s Jersey Day.<\/h4>\n

Jersey Day was started by the Gremmo family in honour of their eldest child, Nathan, who was critically injured in an accident in May 2013 at age 13.<\/p>\n

Nathan\u2019s family chose to give the gift of life to others to honour Nathan\u2019s generous personality. This amazing gift saved the lives of six people \u2013 including five young adults and a baby. Hours prior to his accident, Nathan wrote on his Instagram account, \u201cYou only live once, but if you do it right once is enough\u201d.<\/p>\n

Wise beyond his years, Nathan is described by his father Michael, mother Kylie and sisters Ashley and Annaliese as \u201ca boy with a unique sense of humour, a love for animals and an insatiable energy for life.\u201d<\/p>\n

As part of the day, Donate Life displayed a giant jersey outside the RBWH Education Centre to encourage all staff to consider becoming an organ donor. For more information on how to sign up as an organ donor, please visit www.donatelife.gov.au<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>
