Woman Pictured Holding Own Heart After Transplant by soochukwu(m): 1:14pm On Jan 18, 2013 |
The woman, named as Penny by her friend Kelsey on photo sharing website Imgur, can be seen wearing a medical mask as she grips what appears to be her old heart. ‘Penny’ now has a new fully-functioning heart following the operation, her friend revealed on the site. Posting the image of Penny on Imgur, Kelsey said: “[Penny] is holding her own heart. She has survived cancer and crippling heart failure and never lost hope.” Her friend also revealed doctors had allowed Penny to take a photograph of her old heart before it was cremated. According to Kelsey’s profile, she had wanted to take her heart home but doctors refused. She said: “She wanted to keep it but they wouldn’t let her! I said the same thing. It had to be cremated but she kept the ashes.”
