A 33-year-old women whose one-year-old son received a heart transplant last year penned an open letter to the mother of her son’s anonymous donor.

When Kate Harris’ son, who she refers to as Mr Snuggles, was seven weeks old he suffered several episodes of acute cardiac arrest before being put on life support and a heart pump.

His only hope of survival was to have a heart transplant.

But receiving it was bitter-sweet for the first-time mother as it came with the knowledge that another woman  had lost her baby.

Kate, an aerospace engineer from Florida, wrote a blog post dedicated to the mother of her son’s organ donor in which she said: ‘I think of you a thousand times a day.’
