When He Took a Heart to Repay a Debt​

Summary

On Valentine's Day, my mother-in-law died unexpectedly at the hospital.

And my husband, Matthew Cleese, one of the city's top surgeons, personally signed the organ donation consent form. Then he scrubbed in and harvested her heart himself.

I stormed into the hospital, ready to tear him apart, but he just coolly pulled off his surgical gloves and spoke.

"Clara’s mother has been waiting for this heart for three years. She saved my life once. This is the only way I can repay her."
