Make A Wish
Hi, I guess in all of our lives we want to do something we could be proud of. I've been very lucky in mine - but I really am proud to be a part of Make-A-Wish and I know you are too. Thanks a lot. - Mick

Become an Organ Donor
Join Mickey's Team
The best gift I ever got was on June 8, 1995 when an organ donor gave me and five other patients at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas the organs we needed to live. I guess you could say I got another time at bat.
Become an Organ DonorNow I want to give something back. I can do that first by telling kids and parents to take care of their bodies. Don't drink or do drugs. Your health is the main thing you've got, so don't blow it.
Second, think hard about being an organ and tissue donor if the time ever comes. Sign up and let your family know!
Thanks for your prayers and kindness. I'll never be able to make up all I owe God and the American people. But if you will join me in supporting the cause of organ and tissue donation, it would be a great start.

Thanks for sharing some reputable charities how is working so well in the past, I’m sharing this post in my social media to those get more support.
Dear Danny – there is never a day that passes when I don’t remember your Dad, my childhood hero. Number 7 has and always will be my favorite number, along with 34, Walter Payton. Both Mickey and Walter left us way too soon. By faith in Christ, I know I’ll meet them in Gods Kingdom. Both made peace with Christ. It was great talking to you, Danny. Conversing with you makes me feel like I’ve touched the heart of a champion…just like your Dear Dad.
