COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. (WPVI) -- A Montgomery County woman has a new lease on life thanks to social media, a woman from Wisconsin, and her favorite boy band.
Stefani Jones of Collegeville was in the end stage of renal disease and needed a kidney transplant.
The pop band O-Town tweeted about Jones' search for a kidney donor back in 2016.
Amy Prince of Wisconsin saw the tweet, realized they were the same blood type, got tested and found she was a match.
The two underwent surgery at Jefferson University Hospital last week, and are now recovering.
The women say the band O-Town has been following their journey and plans to send them backstage passes.
