Eric De La Cruz has a shot at life because people on social networking sites rallied behind his sister’s plea for help. Veronica appeared on The Mike and Juliet Show today telling the story. A stat was offered up that 17 people die each day in America waiting for a transplant. It took Eric 5 years and a diagnosis of weeks to live before he was finally able to get the help he needed.
