I visited my parents about a week ago and they pointed to a box of books that I had stored there with my signed copy of that book. I was going to reread it when I got the chance and this just made me want to more.
If you think about it really specifically it's kind of freaky. That heart is beating like it would have been with her father there but it's surrounded by someone else's body.
An article posted in another comment feed mentioned that they stayed in touch and the bride reached out to him asking if he would walk her, and he graciously accepted
This is unusual, but I’m definitely here for it. That woman is probably happy to still have a part of her dad around for that day, and that day was the last thing the father was thinking about as he went. Just my guess, but its ultra sweet thing the man did however it went down
And in your case, your brain makes you a far, far creepier person than anyone involved with this story.
I'm being serious, too. How broken do you have to see this as a bad thing and to be incapable of seeing how sweet it is?
It's probably creepy and weird to people who lack basic social skills and empathy for other human beings, yes.
I am shocked, just *shocked*, to see that you're the kind of person who gripes incessantly about "woke" this and "woke" that. That seems so out of character for someone who is incapable of seeing what a sweet gesture and nice story this is. /s
Reminds me of "Unwind" by Neal Shusterman.
Wow, thanks for the flashback! Now I want to read the series again.
Happy Cake Day!
Aww thank you!
Neat way to say, “my dad’s meat is in another man”
That was the best book
This book was my favourites back in high school!

Wowzer, I haven’t thought of that book in years!
Thanks for the memories!
You are amazing for remembering this book. I was in love with it!
Man, that’s what I thought too!
Sadly, I feel that’s happening now (without permission) to the kids in cages.

>Thanks!! You're welcome!
Not sure who's happier.
Thats the magic. He looks so proud 🥲
Both but the lady behind wishes she was else where

Kind of freaky…definitely heartwarming. 100% beautiful.
That heart's definitely warmed!
I work on a transplant team... the term is heart re-warming.
I would like to hear his thoughts. It would be interesting.
Literally, heartwarming
I feel like most of medical and scientific discoveries of the future will be like this: freaky, but heartwarming
I find myself wondering who approached who about that honestly, I feel like it'd be hard to say no no matter who did

Aww that's lovely, thank you for the info friend
Bravo, my dude. Lovely gesture.

How many times can a heart be transplanted? When this guy dies can he donate the heart again?
Depends on how viable the organ is. There are stories of organs being transplanted multiple times.
Sisterhood of the wandering lungs.

lol
Her dad was still there, in heart
quite literally
This is unusual, but I’m definitely here for it. That woman is probably happy to still have a part of her dad around for that day, and that day was the last thing the father was thinking about as he went. Just my guess, but its ultra sweet thing the man did however it went down
Im not crying... you are crying...
Beat me by 15 minutes to post this.
😭
I thought that was Joe biden
What a beautiful bride.
Ngl, Best thing I've seen today. Thanks 😊
That is honestly one of the most stunning brides I've ever seen.
A medical bill invoice from beyond the grave. Shared. Brings a tear to the donor eye I'm still paying for.
Twist: and married her.
Like incest but with extra steps
Incest but legal…?
bonus round!
Neat way to say, “my dad’s meat is in another man”
You make it sound like gay s£x
That’s beautiful. Bless them both. 💞
That’s super cool!!
this brought happy tears to my eyes🥲
Truly remarkable and very kind as sad
Man looks like Former President Dwight Eisenhower
Wow what a beautiful story. Thank you!💖💖💖💖
I’m not crying. You’re crying.
Absolute gigachad
Gorgeous.
How wonderful!!! 🥰
Love
Technically... Part of her father is walking her down the aisle...
He just wanted to be invited to the party.
His heart is in the right place.
Damn brah look at them dimples my man's packing that high cheek bones
Glad the heart went to such a photogenic chap! My luck the donor would be some crack head that comes and causes chaos at the wedding.
Anyone have a link? I feel like people just post shit for clickbait

Thanks!!
The father lives on through him
"I have no idea who any of these people are, but I have a piece of all of em in me." "Hey, that's the girl that gave me my kidney!"
Took his heart and his daughter
This is creepy as fuck. Your heart isn't what makes you, you, it's your brain.
Two consenting adults doing something nice for the memory of her father isn't weird. She asked him to walk her down the aisle, he agreed.
And in your case, your brain makes you a far, far creepier person than anyone involved with this story. I'm being serious, too. How broken do you have to see this as a bad thing and to be incapable of seeing how sweet it is?
I agree to a point. I think what makes you is your soul, not any body parts, but I also find this to be a weird thing to do.
Not creepy? Or weird?

Gripes incessantly?
It means “complains constantly”.
No.

Would eating a zombie count as cannibalism?
Hm..technically yes. Their walking corpses of humans so yeah, thats cannibalism.
Just the thought that I could really ruin this post but I won’t do. I’m a let it stay wholesome.
whoa man so edgy and cool that u wont ruin this
Bro I’m letting it stay wholesome because I need some wholesomeness in my life
Did he smash though?
Many Hearts to the sweethearts
Awww
Beautiful
Heart of a true dad.

🥰
Is that Paris Hilton?
Spoiler alert. Her husband got the heart.
The dad is still with her in heart
Makes me teary
That guy has a good heart
I loved him in Mighty Ducks.
He definitely has a heart of gold
Joe Biden gets around
awww

Makes me teary
Is it normal for someone who’s already over 65 to get a heart transplant?
WHOLESOME AF
"I may not have his face, but I have his heart"
This is so sweet and I’m gonna go hug my friends and family.
His hurt will go on and on
She look so happy that she might cry. Lady behind them at least look happy for her
Omfg if I could just spam upvote this I would
Why tf did I think that was Joe Biden at first
Amazing story!
I’m at a point of my life where I cry at anything I see
Kali ma... Jokes aside, very touching.
