Teen Dies After Collapsing On Football Field, Now His Family Meets The People He Saved

For a parent, losing a child is the worst thing that could happen. The pain is unlike any other, and trying to return to daily life can seem impossible to do. You live in a new normal that isn't at all like you imagined it would be.

But, for some families, organ donation is a way for their child to live on and continue to make a difference in the world even after they're gone.

It is also a way for families to stay connected to their loved one by meeting and getting to know the grateful lives that were saved by their selfless decision.

The ability to hear your child's heart beating for months and years after their death is truly something special.

When 16-year-old football player Cam'ron Matthews passed away suddenly following a game last year, his family made the decision to donate his organs.

Now, they are able to sit in a room full of people, surrounded by their son's beating heart and pumping lungs.

Not only that, they are able to hear the stories of the people whose lives are forever changed by their choice.

It's a way to find comfort and peace during a truly unthinkable time, and to give even more meaning to a life gone too soon.
