50:29Now PlayingAfter travelling a far journey from Mexico to the States, 17 year old Jesica Santillan was ready to undergo surgery that would change her life for the better. She needed a heart and a double lung transplant and after hard work, Jesica and her family were finally able to afford the $500,000 surgery. But what they thought would be an improvement in her health soon turned into a botched procedure nobody was expecting. Jesica was given the wrong organs and this medical error would put her through weeks of suffering before passing away. And it was after this tragedy occurred when many discussions on issues surrounding organ donation would open up.
