“Emmanuel gave me the greatest gift that you could give somebody, and that is the second chance at life. I have a part of him in me,' Brianna Borello said.
TAMPA, Fla. — She is an actress and model, but for Tampa’s Brianna Borello, beauty is not skin deep. It lives within her, thanks to a boy who gave her the gift of life.
While Briana studied at the University of South Florida, she continued her acting classes. But the real life drama was about to begin. “There’s not a day that doesn’t go by that I don’t think of him,” Brianna said. “He was born with craniofacial anomalies. He had had so many surgeries in his young, little life."
Because Brianna had been recovering from sepsis, she had not completed a psychiatric evaluation. She worried it was her only chance of a kidney donor. Brianna said after her doctors intervened, she was approved to receive Emmanuel’s five-year-old kidneys.
