ARK GIRARD JUNIORS HEART IS TRULY THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING. HE WAS ATTACKED AND KILLED WHILE STICKING UP FOR A FRIEND IN 2014. HIS HEART WAS TRANSPLANTED INTO A MAN WHO DIED A MONTH LATER. AS MARTIE SALT REPORTS, WHAT SURGEONS DID THEN HAS ONLY BEEN DONE NINE OTHER TIMES IN THE WORLD. A heart transplant is a treatment option for life-threatening and irreversible heart diseases that cannot be managed by other medical or surgical methods. JUNIOR HAD A HEART SO STRONG THAT WHEN HE DIED, IT EXTENDED AND IMPROVED THE LIVES OF NOT ONE, BUT TWO RECIPIENTS.
