I love these images. The father of a girl who donated her heart is offered the chance to hear his daughter’s heart again. Try to imagine someone seeing this video 100 years ago, wondering how the this story could be possibly be true. When I saw the stethoscope come out, that when I started feeling emotionally flooded by this video.
Bill Conner of Wisconsin rode his bicycle 2600 miles across the country to honor his daughter and raise awareness about the importance of organ, eye and tissue donation. Bill’s daughter, Abbey, died in January of 2017. She was an organ donor. On Father’s Day 2017, Bill heard his daughter’s heart beat again. After biking 1400 miles through several states, Conner stopped in Ventress, Louisiana to meet his daughter’s heart recipient, Loumonth Jack, Jr
That was super sweet.
