Lisa Simkin, from Nottingham, underwent a life-saving lung transplant in 2013. Her donor was 33-year-old Rhona, who had died of a brain haemorrhage days after giving birth to her second child.

Six months after the transplant, Lisa wrote a letter to Rhona鈥檚 family 鈥渢o say thank you鈥�.

She says the family 鈥渙pened their door with loving arms鈥� and she now feels part of their family.

Rhona鈥檚 dad John even walked Lisa down the aisle at her wedding.

Lisa told Radio 5 Live she feels like she鈥檚 known them all her life: 鈥淚t鈥檚 a very surreal feeling.鈥�
