Description
The Hamilton County coroner has joined a nationwide project sharing life-saving gifts.
It's called "My Heart Your Heart" and its mission is to recycle pacemakers and donate them to people in need around the world.
"When most people think of coroners, they think of death. And this is an opportunity to kind of change that," Hamilton County Coroner Jeff Jellison said. "Because now we have coroners that are saving lives. So that's rewarding for us to know that we may have just come off a really bad scene. But after we get back, we may be sending one of these off to save a life for someone who can't afford it."
