On this episode I chatted with translate patient Ron Black about his experience with OBI that saved his life. Ron grew up in Seattle and joined the navy. After being honorable discharged he found his way to Oklahoma. 

Arriving in Oklahoma Ron developed a love for hunting joining his already passionate energy for politics he dove into tv broadcasting with his hunting show and found his way onto the radio with his own three hour drive home show. So yes, I was bring judged on my radio interview skills by a master of the decks!

Ron suffered some health scares and found himself on the operating table waiting for a new liver. His transplant took a lot longer than usual and without the blood donations of Oklahoma donors he would simply not be here today. Like he says in this podcast he wouldn't be walking his daughters down the isle this year. 

Once he was cleared to work by his doctor he applied for a job with OBI and his now raising awareness about the blood donations that save Oklahoma lives.
