Now, her heart is on display at the Wellcome Collection exhibition in central London, attracting the attention of many people. Sutton said she decided to lend the organizers a show to raise public awareness about organ donation to save people.

In the UK, on ​​average, a patient who needs a heart transplant must wait 103 days before receiving the appropriate donor organ. Last year, 28 people were killed while waiting for a heart transplant.

How did Sutton feel when ' watching ' the sick heart that almost killed her? 'The first time I saw my heart was an emotional experience but also very strange. It was so painful and miserable when I was still in my chest . ', Sutton shared.
