Beautiful Women: Two heroes give gift of life to Glyndon woman

WDAY, Fargo ND | Kerstin Kealy
GLYNDON, Minn. (WDAY TV) - It's the greatest gift you can give: the gift of life. For a Kristi Fabre, organ donation has changed her life…twice over.

GLYNDON, Minn. (WDAY TV) - It's the greatest gift you can give: the gift of life.

For a Glyndon woman, organ donation has changed her life…twice over.

Kerstin Kealy introduces us to Forum Communications next Beautiful Woman.

In every fiber of her being, Kristi Fabre represents the beauty of optimism.

Our beautiful woman team had a chance to meet her at her Glyndon home. Kidney failure has plagued her from childhood, but you wouldn't know it. She has managed to stay strong and positive, sharing her story to inspire others.

It's a story that starts on the picturesque prairies of Clay County. A farmer's daughter growing up like any other child.

Kristi Fabre celebrated the first day of kindergarten, birthdays and holidays, and family vacations.

It was summer when everything changed. Kristi was just six years old.
