A 16-year-old girl from Wales who made history when, as a baby, she had a donor heart grafted onto her own has made a full recovery.

Doctors say Hannah Clark's own heart is now in perfect working order three-and-a-half years after her "piggy-back" donor heart was removed.


What an amazing story, brilliant medical achievement. :cheer:

I was watching this report on the news tonight and the poor girl was in tears at the press conference because of the memories what she has been through. What a wonderful story that someone has been given a new lease of life when so many young lives have been lost in the past week in Afghanistan.
