Sky News published this video item, entitled “NHS surgeons in children’s heart transplant breakthrough” – below is their description.
A 14-year-old girl has told Sky News she feels “blessed to have a second chance at life” after having a heart transplant using a donor organ that had started beating again thanks to a new machine.
Freya Heddington was only the second child ever to have their life saved by the pioneering technology, which had previously been tried just in adults.
WARNING: This report contains pictures of a beating heart awaiting transplant.
