Coen was born with cystic fibrosis and later developed diabetes. With a lung capacity of just 20%, Coen spent a 1/3 of each day dealing with treatments of varying kinds. At age 15 he received a double lung transplant, a procedure that saved his life. Now a once painful hissing sound can be recognized as a laugh, a difficult walk now a full-on run, he can even wrestle with his little brother. Able to live like a normal teenager, Coen enjoys snorkeling, jet-skiing and swimming, all thanks to a generous organ donor who changed his life. Today Coen is raising awareness to potential donors about the life saving gift of tissue and organs in hopes of signing them up and saving other lives.
