69yr old woman gives up spot on #organdonor waitlist for stranger in dire need #wfaa FULL: https://t.co/vBGSClLIl3https://t.co/nLrVb0tH8E
Even though Brenda Jones had been on the organ donor wait list for over a year, she didn't mind waiting a little longer if it meant keeping a young woman from dying.
So they asked the 69-year-old if she was willing to give up the transplant so Abigail could live, to which Brenda didn't hesitate to say yes.
"In my heart, I wouldn't have been able to live with the liver if I had let this little girl die," Jones told WFAA. "And I still had more time … I would have been a very selfish person."
Abigail's father got to meet Brenda after she saved his daughter's life and gave her a hug while crying out a heartfelt thank you.
However Brenda's kindness paid off when another liver for the elderly woman came in a few days after she gave up the original organ.
