Pro football player Konrad Reuland’s heart is now in Rod Carew – A man he met when he was 11.

"He gets in the car, big eyes and everything — he’s about 11, maybe 12 — and he’s saying, ‘Mom, mommy, I met Rod Carew today! You know, he’s a pro athlete. I want to be a pro athlete.’ And the rest of the day that’s all he talked about was meeting Rod Carew," Mary recalled.

They only met that once, but these two professional athletes are now inseparable. Because a few months before he died, Konrad checked the organ donor box on his driver’s license application, and by sheer coincidence, the man who received his heart was none other than Rod Carew.
