Gift of Life 75 The Organ Transplant Podcast

This week, we meet Lisa Vecchione, a heart transplant survivor whose story reminds us of the delicate balance between life, timing, and the gift of organ donation.

Lisa’s journey began long before her transplant. A heart murmur noticed back in junior high might have been a warning sign—but no one could have predicted the road ahead. Years later, while working as a barista and suddenly feeling unwell, Lisa went to the ER only to learn that her heart was in far worse shape than she had ever imagined.

What followed was a battle for survival—filled with challenges, uncertainty, and ultimately, the life-saving gift of a new heart. But Lisa’s story doesn’t end there. In one of the most emotional moments of her journey, she met her donor’s family, giving them the chance to hear their loved one’s heartbeat living on inside her. It’s a story of connection, gratitude, and love that transcends loss.

This episode is not just about survival—it’s about the bonds that organ donation creates, the hope it restores, and the way it turns tragedy into life.
