Yuval's heart saved 10 year old Palestinian girl

[Lipush]

In her death, 11-year-old Yuval Nizri has helped bring life – to five other people, via the donation of her organs. Among the people who received organs from Yuval were four children and a 39-year-old woman.

Yuval was killed in a tragic car accident in Rishon Letzion last week. Her parents, seeing that saving her would be impossible, agreed to allow her organs to be used to help others. Among those who owe their lives to her: A ten-year-old girl who received her heart and lungs; a 4-year-old boy who was given her liver; and a 5 and 16-year old, who each received one of her kidneys. Those operations were carried out at Schneider Children's Hospital in Petah Tikvah.

these stories are more common place than many realize. They seen only Israelis and palestinians in some perpetual battle of death rather than just people living side by side and caring for each other, as it should be.
