WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — For Valentine's Day, you may give your sweetie some chocolates or a handmade gift, but one woman gave her husband the gift of life.
When Richard Lawson was told he needed a kidney last fall, his wife Lynn immediately stepped up to see if she could give him one of hers.
"He was very hesitant. He was not crazy about me doing it," Lynn Lawson said. "But I said if I'm going to ask other people to do, then I'm going to volunteer first, and what are the chances we will be a match. We were."
