"I could feel it beating really, really strong"
In August 2003, 16 year-old Martin Burton suffered irreversible brain damage, and his parents Nigel and Sue agreed for his organs to be donated. Martin's heart went to 15 year-old Marc McCay. Sue Burton describes to presenter Cole Moreton what it is like to place her hand on Marc McCay’s chest to feel her son Martin’s heart.
First broadcast on The Boy Who Gave His Heart Away, 10 June 2016.
