It's the unfortunate reality that children are accidentally killed sometimes and devastated parents must bury them long before it's their time to go. It's every parent's nightmare and there's no possible consolation for this kind of grief.
Arianna Spencer was one of these children. She was only 19 years old when she was killed by a stray bullet at a party she was attending.
Meanwhile, the same night, a woman suffering from heart problems was rushed to the hospital with heart failure.
Stephanie Smith needed a new organ or else she would die.
She was given Spencer's heart.
A year after that very day, Smith finally met Spencer's devastated mother, Michelle. The meeting was special: She wouldn't just get to meet the person her daughter saved with her death, but she would also get to hear that tiny piece of her daughter that's still here — her heart. The women were complete strangers, but were brought together by the teen's lifesaving decision to become an organ donor.
Now watch as Michelle brings a stethoscope up to Smith's chest and tears up hearing her child's heartbeat again.
