Shocking story - "It is very strange that I donated my heart and I am still alive"

Two women underwent a rare medical procedure and luckily they were lucky.

These are some of the stories that you should definitely read.

It all started when 55-year-old Linda Karr from California was diagnosed with a heart problem. At the same time, 53-year-old Tammy Griffin from Oregon heard from her doctors that her lungs were damaged and that her life was in danger. 

However, science performed its miracle once again after the doctors decided to try a rare domino procedure on the two girls, with many risks. Tammy, 53, after donating her healthy heart to 55-year-old Linda, took the heart and lungs of a donor who had lost his life. And here is the shocking thing because the 53-year-old, while she had a healthy heart, "gifted" it to an unknown woman.

The two women met and as you will see in the photos, the 53-year-old listens to the beating of her heart, which now literally belongs to another man. 

It is very strange that I donated my heart and I am still alive. "You never hear that," Tammy told News Deseret. I said, I had to save someone's life and someone saved hers, adding that "And then I met her. "It's weird and exciting to go through all this together." 

Karr, for her part, said the situation was very "lucky" because of the exact blood type match.
