Hey, this is Radiolab, I'm Latif Nasser, and today we have a story for you that gets at the satisfaction of knowing.
There are lots of moments in life when you are a piece of someone's story, just a little part of it for a moment, and you never get to see how that story shakes out or what impact you actually had.
This story starts out like that.
A family puts something out into the void, something very meaningful to them, without any expectation that they will ever hear back about it.
But then they decide, actually, wait a second, we do want to know what came out of that.
And so they go on a quest to find out.
It's an episode we originally released in 2015, and we've got a little update for you at the end.
I should say at the top, this episode discusses medical issues with a pregnancy, if that is a sensitive topic for you.

About a year after we originally aired this episode, Sarah Gray published a book with HarperOne called A Life Everlasting, The Extraordinary Story of One Boy's Gift to Medical Science.
It's a memoir that dives into the world of organ donation and medical science with a different perspective on the afterlife.
Sarah's also been up to all sorts of other stuff, too.
She actually stayed in touch with the scientist that was working on eye cancer in the episode, Dr. Arupa Ganguly, and they became friends.
