A couple of weeks ago, former UNLV soccer star Simon Keith was one of five people asked to give a speech about organ donation. The speech was in Washington, D.C. At the White House.
(Or if you are a stickler for semantics, just west of it, at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.)
He sort of felt like that guy from the Talking Heads song who asks himself how did he get there.
“Never thought a jock from Victoria, B.C., would make it here,” he wrote on his Facebook page. “What a humbling experience.”
Simon Keith, as you may know if you’ve been following this space, received a heart transplant when he was 21 years old.
