Donate Life America reaches 100 million registered donors

Roseville resident Natasha Deegan, 31, spoke at an event at the Department of Motor Vehicles headquarters in Sacramento Tuesday celebrating 100 million registered organ, eye and tissue donors in the United States.

Deegan received a liver transplant in 2008.

“My doctors say I am a miracle, but I don’t agree,” she said during the event. “The miracle is my angel, my donor, who decided to give the gift of life.”
