This is the incredible moment a woman meets the father of her heart donor who gave her a new life after 21 years of pain and struggle.
Katherine Schroeder-Hermann was born with a rare congenital heart disease and underwent more than 20 heart operations before her 22nd birthday, the first of which was when she was just a month old.
While in college, Katherine learned she was in heart failure and needed a heart transplant. She underwent a heart transplant at 21 years old.
Since the successful procedure, Katherine has been able to complete a 5K, secure a job and get married.
