I’m not one for football.

I never have been (though I have tried to be at times), but I couldn’t resist sharing this unique story.

Especially because it involves babies, who are the tiniest yet fiercest warriors I know at times.  Their resilience always humbles me.

I love the tenacity of the donor family in making sure their son’s heart was also donated.  From some other articles I had seen published on this family, without the donor mom’s insistence it might not have been.

Which (given their circumstances & grief) that insistence had to be an incredible weight to bear.

I’m so happy these two families had a mutual friend to make a bridge for support for both of them so they could eventually forge an important & powerful connection.
