PHOENIX -- Heather Clark was given the incredible opportunity to listen to her son's heartbeat for the first time in nearly three years -- and it was inside a 4-year-old's body.
Clark faced an unthinkable tragedy in 2013 when she lost her 7-month-old son, Lukas. She chose to donate his organs and saved the lives of three children, including 4-year-old Jordan Drake.
Around Thanksgiving of last year, Clark made contact with Jordan's family. She wrote about it on Facebook:
On Friday, Clark was given the opportunity to meet Jordan at Phoenix Children's Hospital and listen to her son's heartbeat for the first time in three years.
Clark wrote:
Jordan's mother was also anxious about meeting Clark for the first time.

"I'm not going to say anything. I'm just going to hug her. I think I have run out of words at this point. Hugging... I don't have anything else to say," Esther Gonzalez said moments before meeting Clark.
Donate Life Arizona captured the emotional reunion on Friday and shared photos on Facebook. The group also captured the entire reunion on video.
