She Donated Part of Her Liver to a Stranger's Child. Then She Got to Meet Him.

A woman chose to become a living liver donor and gave part of her liver to save a little boy's life. The Cleveland Clinic captured their reunion on video.

Becoming a living liver donor is not a small decision. It means undergoing surgery, accepting risk, and trusting that part of you will go on inside someone you've never met.

One woman made that choice — and the child whose life she saved survived.

The Cleveland Clinic brought the two of them together for a reunion, which was captured on video and shared with the world.

The moment when a donor meets the person they saved is always difficult to describe. It is gratitude and relief and something deeper than either of those words — a recognition that one person's generosity became another person's entire future.

The boy was alive because she had said yes.
