I didn‘t know you could actually feel your heart being ripped out and shattered into pieces. I have difficulty just watching this. To the brave family and the indescribable angel francine, thank you for your infinite gift. This is bigger than humanity itself.

She went to my elementary school and i remember during morning break she and some of her other friends would hang out with me whenever I was alone. She was one of the nicest girls I have ever met❤

KZfaq should have a love and respect button for such brave hearts.. saved so many lives!

As a 2 time liver transplant recipient all I can say is that she is a hero and will never be forgotten.

There was an Honor Walk for my adult sister. The hardest part was watcing the surgery doors close on her. To give your little girl up like this is amazing. Bless you all. Your child is in Heaven but part of her is still living here.

When a person takes his/ her last breath on earth it is at that very moment that he/she has taken his/her First breath in heaven. It is then the individual has taken his/ her wings and is able to to fly free without worry... without pain and with all the abilities he/she was denied on earth. Fly high little one!!! You are free!!

Shes not dead. Shes a legend, and legends will never die✝️

The little doll.. oh what a beautiful angel.

48 year old male and am proud to say have tears in my eyes, Sleep tight Francine, Love from Scotland

The way the mother kept touching her hands and rubbing them... Made me think of my daughter and how I would probably do the same thing knowing it might be the last time I touch her or feel her here on earth. I could not imagine that pain and anxiety of my child being taken away.

Francine was an amazing girl. Me and her attended the same school and she was the bestest and most caring friend anyone could have ever had. I miss the memories we had made before this tragedy happened.

It brings tears when you escort your kid patient to the OR, but seeing this angel giving new hope to 6 other kids really had me crying. That’s a brave and selfless family she has.

at just 10 years old her life was taken from this earth far too soon but she's a hero for gifting her own organs to others so they can live on...RIP Francine may you forever fly free and at peace...

I don’t think I’ll handle being a nurse this is so heartbreaking

While her tiny body was walked through these halls, past those who honored her, I know her soul was bathed in light. Yet still... I'm sobbing.

It is April 2023, and I am watching your lovely, sweet daughter's Honor Walk. My children are young adults and I do not personally know the anguish of losing one of your children, but oh how it must devastatingly ache. I'm so very proud of your family for your selflessness. I had tears the moment the video began. Francine left a legacy that's as golden as your family's hearts❣

My family has recently went through this same decision with 11 month old child. God bless us all. 😢

I' never knew what an "Honor Walk" was until watching this video, and I'm so amazed at the compassion and solidarity that the honor walk provides in support of the family..so beautiful!

Thanks to my 17 year old donor I have a strong heart I applaud the family for choosing to donate this beautiful baby's organs to save others god bless you all

Can't see a child died, there is so much of life to see. Oh god can't stop crying.

Those that received her greatest gift may or may not know her name, but they will ALWAYS know the gift she gave. May her family and those that she loves find peace and comfort. Fly high Angel.

I have honestly never cried this hard on a youtube video before… I couldn‘t help myself but let the tears run down my face… How unfair that such a young life had to end so tragically and soon, but how brave and honorable of the parents to donate her organs and save the lives of six children. May she rest in peace 🙏🏼❤️

So sad and at age 10. Her donation has changed the lives of others and she will live on because of that. My condolences go out to all the family and friends who treasured this little one.

Its been 2 years since this little angel left and her gift is still living and giving among many she has helped her memory is still not forgotten! RIP and blessings to her family

Such an amazing way to honor a child before passing. Must have been so difficult and painful to see your child go like this. Thanks for all who lined up in the corridor to pay respect. Rest well Francine. Hug the Lord for us.

This is heartbreaking, rest in heaven Francine 🙏🏼😢

I am just now seeing this beautiful tribute to Francine, 11 months after it was first posted. Valley Children's hospital is where I have spent many days with my own children and even now for follow up. I will remember Francine everytime I go there from here on and I will say a prayer that God allow Francine to show her Mama, Papa, siblings and family a little sign that makes them smile and think of her and feel peace in their soul and know that she is with God but always near you too. From one central valley mom, I thank you for your courage to save the lives of other complete strangers so that they don't have to know the heartache that you feel. I too know this heartache as I have lost my baby son (but he was too sick to donate.) My daughter, who is now 30 is still with us because of a family like yours and a child like Francine. My daughter was but 5 months old when she received her liver transplant. Francine and family, you are true heroes! God bless you.

Organ donation levels remain shockingly low. So when parents like Francine’s donate their child’s organs despite experiencing the greatest pain you any ever know… well, I say I’m in awe of your selflessness & bow to you for the incredible sacrifice you’ve made. You will see Francine again & you’ve done her amazing life proud! 💕

I remember my best friends honor walk. Standing there holding her Hands saying goodbye. Her last words was "lets go and make some kids happy" and Last year I got a text from a now 13 year old girl telling me how much she wanted to thank her, for making her life possible.

As a parent I could not imagine the pain they are in . I don’t want too! My condolences for your great loss. Something no parent should have to do. I thank you for your strength to bless others with a chance at life. Prayers for your family!!!

From one dad to this Dad, I can't even begin to imagine. Nor would I want to. But she saved others lives and your (& your wife's) courage made that possible. It'll never make up for what you've lost, but she's still there. and she always will be. I'm an Agnostic on a good day, but I will pray for you and yours for solace and some kind of closure and healing. I'm so very sorry.

God bless her and her family she truly is a hero I truly don't know what else to say God bless her and her family and all those Hospital staff they're all heroes too

I always believed its so unfair for children to die so young without having a chance to live life to it's fullest. However the thought that her organs were donated to another child in need really brings comfort that she will live on in them. Sending love and comfort to that family as well as Francine. May you rest in peace Sweet Angel

I can see in her eyes just how special she was. Her short time on Earth will surely leave a huge impact. God bless her family. I pray they find strength to get through this tremendous loss 🙏

I'm from the same city as this little angel and I have a deep connection to valley children's through my son so this hits very close to home and heaven is Even brighter thanks to that little angel smile.

My God, I am so sorry for your loss. There are no words for this loss. I'm sending you love and prayers...

God bless this family for making such an heartbreaking decision but saved the lives of others. Xx

Francine lives on in the lives she saved. She and her family are heroic to choose to help others in the midst of personal devastation.

Hardest ones of these are when it's the children who are passing on. So much of life was still ahead. :(

Francine - thank you, thank you for the lives you have saved! You are a true hero. Many blessings and prayers to your family. May God grant them peace.

As a nurse there is no greater honor than to be present when someone passes into the next life. Bless you sweet child.

The fear of having children and then losing them is something I can't go through.RIP

What kind of person would "thumbs down" this video? This beautiful young lady is giving the gift of life! God bless her and her family!

I love how the staff honors the body here. I used to volunteer at Hospice and each time we'd lose a patient it was much the same. Volunteers and staff silently lined the halls as the body was carried out to the waiting hearse. It was quite a moving experience: man's humanity to man at its very finest. May God grant that we be our finest to each other while we're still here. 💕

It breaks heart to see our children dying in front of our eyes..rest in peace baby..god bless you ..

Far away from America, across the seas, I feel the grief of this family at the loss of this wonderful young lady....my heart breaks for this young angel who is now in heaven

An angel has gathered her wings and is ready to fly. RIP Francine!!!! I'll NEVER forget you!! Please soar like an eagle!! I wish kids should never go through this. “She wanted to be a chef” that was a good sentence by her nurses. If she was a chef she would work at Kroger as a pastry chef or a restaurant as the cook. Francine, God is waiting for you. Go get em tiger!!! ✝️❤️‍🩹🕊️

It is always so sad when a child passes, but by donating the child's organs they can continue on in another body and save someone's life. Thank you Francine and family.

They need to do this at every hospital my father in law donated his organs and we got a "you done a good thing." Before walking out letting our family just sob alone in a cold and empty room. This helps the family in so many ways.

Amazing how people make that final decision to donate a child, brother, sister, daughter, son, mother, father, aunt, uncle, & loved ones to save others. That’s the best of the best of the human race. Thanks to all who’s final act, saved others.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I was a nurse for many years and have been retired quite a while. We never did an honor walk. Saw my first one the other day online. I broke down in tears. What a wonderful tribute to the patients and families who make these gifts. God Bless all the families

Bless you sweetheart your gift to those in need is absolutely amazing. The gift of an organ is one of the ultimate forms of kindness and bless you to your family for donating those life saving little gifts. ❤️ God bless.

I thought I was going to SPLIT IN TWO!!! GOD BLESS THIS FAMILY. Thank you to all of those who stood to honor this beautiful child, and Rest In Peace sweet girl.

This girl was an angel. Thankyou for giving your life to others 😇

God bless Francine and her family for the awesome gift Francine has given. Rest in peace Francine.

As a pediatric ICU nurse I had the privelege of accompanying a child to the OR for procurement of their organs following their brain death & the parent's decision to donate their organs. In 30+ yrs of nursing, it has been, bar none, the most impactful moment of my nursing career. Procuring & packaging of 6 organs in an opportunity to improve & extend the life of 6 individuals. The entire process is so well choreographed from the timing if each surgical crew being present (heart team, lung team, abdomen team), ambulances at the ready transporting each team from the airport to the hospital & remaining at the hospital to return each team with their specific organ back to the airport & their awaiting private plane, to the intra-operative team being ready & prepared for the moment of "no turning back" called cross-clamp. Everything one hears on stories or what-not that the heart is an awesome site, I 10000% DISagree. The LUNGS were the most beautiful awesome site I have EVER seen. The patient's story in itself changed me as a parent due to the events surrounding the death & for THAT alone I understand why our paths intersected. ❤

God Bless Francine and the Family. My husband passed in 2010 was a donor. His life was full of joy, and a continued joy through helping those who were in need of an organ. My husband maybe gone yet he's not forgotten through the gift of giving.

I couldn’t ever imagine having to make that kind of a decision. Such a beautiful little girl gone to soon. God bless her parents an family

Thank you for the Gift Of Life and Giving Hope To Someone Who Will Always Be Grateful!

This is the bravest and most selfless act of generosity. Blessings to the family.

This is so hard. You rejoice for those that are going receive life changing gifts, but your heart breaks for the family of those who unselfishly give to save so many lives. So beautiful, yet so very sad. God bless this family and those that will have a better quality of life because of this beautiful little angel.❤

Every time I see one of these on KZfaq I start to cry! God bless you Francine! May you rest in peace in God’s loving arms.

There is 693 dislikes on this.... I don’t see how anyone can not like this, this little girl is saving other lives bless her little heart!

I'm laying here in bed, my 6 year old grandson asleep in between my wife and I. His little hand on my arm and I'm trying not to sob while watching this mother hold her childs hands for the last time. With my own children I've always said time is cruel and it went too fast. Watching this i realize time is a gift and blessing. Something taken from this mother and child. Only now in my older years do I understand enjoying every day. Stop anticipating and waiting for some ideal future. Enjoy now immensely.

She deserves such a mark of respect. May she rest well.

Sorry for your loss of your beautiful child, what a beautiful gift she gave to other with her gift of life. God bless you 💕

My 11 month old son passed away November 30th 2021 and this honor walk feeling is the most hurtful thing I've ever felt. You get to the end of that hallway and they shut those doors and that's it . The last time you ever see your child . If the walk could've been longer. I'm Soo sorry sweetie

Let her fly high up above the sky may god bless her little soul.

This is a BOSS MOVE!! God does not make mistakes!! This beautiful young girl is a gift....a gift to those who know and love her....and a gift to those she will continue to live on through. ❤️

There is nothing that can be said that will truly express what I feel at this moment, the tears , the pain, the gratitude, combined with Faith in God that He is to Wise , to Loving, to Merciful, to make a mistake Thank you though painful to watch what an unselfish gift I put no periods because there is no end to GODS everlasting love and the love of those who truly know and believe in HIM

May her Rest In Peace, she is in a better place now. With golden gates, and a better home. Bless her little heart may her family be well, and may Francine live in peace in the heavens.

Why does KZfaq always attempt to make me cry at 3am? Smiling tonight because of you Francine. ❤️

The moment when you can no longer continue to watch the video because you can’t help yourself from crying.

🙏🏼RIP sweet girl. God hold this baby tight in your arms in Jesus name amen.

Such a beautiful girl. I lost it when I saw that little charm bracelet. I don't know how the family got through this. My heart breaks for them. Rest easy, angel. You did well.

This is the best hospital policy creation in forever. To honor life and to be present for those who loved and lost is such good medicine. I respect and appreciate this so much. So good. So real.

Ur daughter will always be remembered... Its a honor for us to meet such kind hearted parents... Ur child vil still be alive within a different person... Saving a person is the greatest deed a person can do to someone.... Its the accomplishment ur child had already achieved... May ur life and family prosper with happiness.... Take care🙂🙂

What a beautiful girl!! Oh sweet child....dancing with the angels now! God hold you until your family sees you again. Thanks to you and your family you will live on giving others the opportunity to dance, sing, get married, live on...... God Bless YOU!!!

Francine will live on forever now. Is there a greater legacy for such a beautiful child?

Surgeons, nurses etc... are among the best people our world has to offer. Some of them genius's, some filled with compassion beyond compare. But the real heroes ARE the family's. Especially if it's your child. Such heartache. But SUCH courage

She went to my school, i knew her a bit . She was so kind,kinda quiet but always made sure to keep others safe. Rip

Wow this made me cry 😢 God please give this family the strength they need to endure this horrible pain... Francine you are a hero to everyone’s including me So spread your wing baby girl and fly high for you are Gods Newest Angel 👼..💔😢

This deserves true honor !! Thanks to the family of Francine...you helped so many. Hope you are doing well in these days. Best wishes from Germany.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.

Oh wow..Absolutely broke me to pieces watching this beautiful angel & parents & friends say goodbye in a perfect way..Thank you & to the parents "I'm sooo sorry for your loss & hope one day you heal & thank you for giving life to somebody else whilst in despair of losing your own baby"😢😢 RIP Angel

I have no words, such a beautiful way to honour this amazing young girl, bless the family and all the wonderful people who lined the corridor. This beautiful young girl will live on

Just beautiful. A fitting tribute for the donor(s) of this most precious gift of all.

And this is why I’m a donor, to help someone that needs a hand .... or kidney ....

I am a nursing student and this breaks my heart. My this little angel rest in peace ❤️🙏🏽

Im sure sweetheart Papa Jesus is happy to welcome you in Heaven..and for you to continue your eternal life with Him..thank you sweetheart...and to your family who are so brave in sharing your life to other...

oh my god why am i watching this im crying so much thank you angel you saved a life or lives

Thank you Francine for your gift to others so they may live . They carry a piece of you everyday and will achieve goals and milestone you couldn't finish . To her brave parents thank you for giving life to others on her behalf I cannot even begin to imagine your pain but I hope you have comfort in knowing she is still here on earth in different bodies .

So brave to think of others while your own heart breaks. God bless you.

I can’t remember the last time I bawled as hard as I am right now. Bless her beautiful innocent heart, as well as her beautiful generous family for giving others the gift of life. Through the recipients, their precious daughter will live on.

Thank you for making such a selfless act, on the most horrific time in your life!! God bless you and your family!!

I just want to say praise GOD I don’t have to worry about nothing because I’m saved and going home!!! Turn to the LORD and have all!!!! GOD is so good amen!!!! Keep doing for the LORD using your special gift amen hallelujah praise GOD!!!

This has to be the hardest thing for any parent to do,such a beautiful gift helping others,Francine,s gift,she will live in in others R.I.P Francine

This Is Honestly One Of The Hardest Videos I Have Watched! I Broke Down Into Tears No One Deserves This Tragedy Especially A Child May Francine Rest In Peace

These donors... these HEROS... gave all so others might have a better life. My niece just received a liver transplant from an organ donor. She's been suffering for decades from Biliary Atresia disease, now she has new hope for a better life. I can't imagine greater love. They're better than us all. May God bless all organ donors and their families. May God forever bless Fancine Salazar.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Bless you for your courage in allowing others to be blessed even as you grieve
