When Taber was placed on the waiting list for a kidney, Batson said she felt she should help him out in a special way. “The whole world was his, except this rare illness that hit him out of the blue, ”Batson said. “Something inside me said I needed to do more. ”
Taber’s mother didn’t qualify as a match, but after doing some tests, Batson found out she did. “The only thing I was nervous about in this entire process was that somebody was going to tell us we couldn’t do it, ”Batson said.
The operation took place on Jan. 10, about a year after the pair met for the first time, and both Batson and Taber are now doing just fine.
Taber is set to marry Laura Calhoun on June 9, and he plans to continue working toward a career in finance.
“I am grateful for what the nurse did for Taber.
I have told her that she’s going to get a special dance at the wedding.
She can pick out the song, ”said Laura. (303W)
