When the pandemic started, Taylor Pikkarainen took on an assignment as a traveling nurse. She spent a couple months during the spring in New Jersey, working on the front lines. She then returned to her home state of Minnesota to save the life of an 18-month-old boy named Body Hall -- by donating her kidney. Taylor learned about Bodie through her sister-in-law and signed up to help immediately.
