When Rose Perry said goodbye to her 24-year-old son Ronald for the last time, part of him was still with her. Her doctors say Ronald's final gift to his mom —a kidney donated after he suddenly died of a heart disease on May 16 — helped save her life.

Perry, 50, said she still couldn’t accept about her son's death, but having his kidney has made grieving a little bit easier."It feels like I can go down, touch my stomach, and I can still feel him," she said. "I feel like he's with me and that makes a big difference in grieving."

 Perry, told last year her kidneys were failing, said she had been receiving treatments three times a week since February. 

They'd spoken briefly on the phone the night before while she was at the hospital, she said. His son told her he'd watched some of the Blackhawks game, that he loved her, and that he'd see her the next day.

Ronald, a seemingly healthy 24-year-old came downstairs the next morning and told his father, Ronald Perry Sr., he didn't feel well and asked him to call 911, Rose Perry said. But he died when he reached the hospital.

Still reeling from her son's death, she was faced with a question: whether or not to accept the transplant. And the doctors told her it would be a "lifesaving gift". A few minutes later, she accepted and thought "If he understands and he realizes, where he's at, that he saved my life, he would be all for it."
