Lung Transplant Brings Two Families Together

Two families, that were separated by distance, but became united as one. Frencesca Greco-Magee was in need of new lungs after she was born with pulmonary fibrosis, a condition that covered her lungs with holes. After being put on double waitlists at two separate hospitals, she moved down to Duke to improve her chances after more than 2 years of failed transplants. Then five days after moving, her prayers were answered and her new lungs came with a new family from Maryville, Tennessee, who just lost their son Bradley. She penned a thank you letter to Bradley’s family and started a connection they all hope will last a lifetime. Watch the full story from WATE-TV 6 News.
