At just 13 years old, she suffered sudden heart failure, and doctors told her parents she wouldn’t survive. But thanks to the selflessness of a grieving mother, she was given a second chance at life.
Jen Lentini is a heart transplant recipient who has dedicated her life to raising awareness about the importance of organ donation. Her journey from an unexpected health crisis to receiving a new heart and reconnecting with her donor’s family has shaped her passion for advocacy. Through her work with organizations like the American Heart Association and Long Island TRIO, she shares her story to encourage others to become donors and make a lasting impact.
I had the honor of sitting down with Jennifer and exploring her incredible story, the challenges of her recovery, and how she continues to honor the gift she was given by celebrating each and every day like a birthday.
