SOMEONE IS CUTTING ONIONS DIRECTLY INTO MY EYES.

[MissDebra]

That's beautiful. What a loving husband she has to plan such a touching meeting. God is good and had mercy on her.

A Friend of mine committed suicide several years ago. His heart was the only organ that was savable and given to an Older gentleman that served his country in the Air Force for 45 years. His Mother was able to meet him after one year and that was if he wanted to meet. She was able to hear his heartbeat and they are still really good friends to this day.

my brother was killed at 18. he was an organ doner. my mother suffered from deep depression until the day she died. a gift like this is so amazing. the 79 people that thumbs down this must have mechanical hearts

Wow, how touching and her husband is a very special man. There is goodness in the world

Now THIS is the kind of videos I want to say “recommended for you”, instead of others I’ve been getting lately. Fascinating as it may be, I have ZERO interest in “Trumpet and Trombone Repair”, “Eastern Goat Herding”, or “Creative Baking With Bundt Pans”. Thanks for sharing !

He’s now her Son. The way he hugs her, just melts my ❤️

[WhatSoEverThingsAreLovely]

That was the nicest thing, BY FAR....that I have seen this week!! She seems like the most lovely human being, bless her....and I just love the way she & the young man get along!! More videos like THIS please, internet!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍😘

[strikelee]

What a sweet story. He could really pass as their son, the picture with the three of them and the similarities in their faces says it all. What a beautiful gift and story.

[GetYekt]

Loved watching them walking together arms around eachother. Special bond. And he kinda looks like them!

[pamelah]

This is so beautiful....I have no words other than please be a donor....God Bless this woman, her husband and the young man who gave and got the heart.

[alissamarshall]

Organ donation is such a blessing. What a beautiful love these two already have.

[ladyjay]

Jacob is a genuine human! The fact he reached out to them, is so beautiful. Organ receivers KNOW there is loss before they endure a medical miracle, and it's amazing to see them fully appreciate their gift. That mom was so moved, brought me to tears for sure!

[Sunshine-qkcs]

Wow. It made me cry. What a beautiful story. Thank you. God Bless every one for bring us the story. 💐💐💞💞😘

[Jexxikak]

That was so amazing ! I love good news !! My God bless and keep you and yours !

[victrola]

Still gives me chills six years later. One day, if not already, she will be a "grandma" too.

[kathieschlosnagle]

To hear your son's heart beating...in someone else to keep them alive. What a gift and what a blessing. 💕💕💕

[nusratzaman]

After watching this video i can't control my tears 😭😭😭, this is so emotional. jacob man, please take care of your new parents 😊 don't forget their help, nd always remember & pray for that person who has given his heart to you. ❤❤❤

[Madsassy]

The picture of her listening to his heartbeat! Incredible
