Life Note: Jack Purcell

Life Note: Em.Co's Jack Purcell will receive a new kidney (donated by his 42-year-old niece) tomorrow (8/13) at 4:45pm CT, as he has been battling Polycystic Kidney Disease (CAT 4/8). The kidney will be donated in Minneapolis in the morning, then flown to Nashville. Noting his happy hour-esque surgery schedule, Purcell would love an industry toast at that time, joking, "It's an open tab. My credit card's still working." In pre-op, he plans to blast a Pitbull-inspired song, "Jack Got  A Kidney," created by work colleague Brian Kaplan.
