Hello and welcome to Wearing My Truth! My name is Raven Martin and I am the face behind the brand.
There is a saying that the most difficult paths lead to the most beautiful destinations; I could not agree more. In 2009, I was 30 years old and relatively healthy. I was a graduate student enjoying life as a wife and mom to 2 boys all while working in birth defects research. After returning from a family vacation to Disneyland, I began experiencing abdominal pains and jaundice.
In 2010, my health continued to worsen, which eventually led to my diagnosis of PSC (Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis), an auto-immune liver disease. Over time, it progressed to liver failure and on August 3, 2022, I received a liver transplant. I am so thankful that my donor's family gifted me a second chance at life.
As I continue to heal, I have made a commitment to share my testimony to help others. Wearing My Truth is my way to help liver and kidney transplant candidates connect with a living donor and to bring awareness to living organ donation.
Looking for a meaningful way to honor your donor? My heartfelt tribute candle is perfect for National Donor Sabbath (Nov 15), Donor Day (Feb 14), and Donor Remembrance Day (Apr 30). Celebrate the gift of life and express your gratitude with a beautiful candle today!
