Back to the real-life story, Chris tragically passed away from a brain aneurysm aged 19. In the film, he married Sam and they had a child, but this didn't happen in real life.
Chris in real life was Christopher Gregory, a 19-year-old freshman who tragically died from a brain aneurysm. The movie is based on the book All My Tomorrows: A Story of Tragedy, Transplant and Hope, written by Chris's father Eric Gregory.
Jorge Bolívar in real life is Jorge Bacardi, heir to the world famous beverage brand. He and his wife Leslie helped to finance the film, but sadly Jorge died in September 2020, just before the film was released.
A total of seven people received Chris Gregory's organs, including Jorge Bacardi, who received Chris's lungs. His heart, liver, kidneys and pancreas were shipped to the same Jacksonville hospital where Bacardi had his transplant. The organs were transplanted into other patients on the waiting list.
Yes, most of 2 Hearts is based on the true story of Jorge Bacardi and Christopher Gregory, and its storylines were inspired by a book written by Chris' father, Eric, called All My Tomorrows: A Story of Tragedy, Transplant, and Hope.
July 9, 2013— -- It was exactly midnight when Colleen Burns eerily opened her eyes and looked at the operating lights above her, shocking doctors who believed she was dead and were about to remove her organs and donate them to patients on the transplant waiting list.
Chris seemingly survives and married Sam, becomes a firefighter, and has a son. However, it's revealed that was all a dream, as, in reality, Chris died. But his death is the gift of life for Jorge, who receives Chris's lungs, which saves him.
Bolivar indeed promised (and kept his promise) to never remarry after Maria Teresa's death. So even though the show seems dramatic and over sentimental, there is substantial historical evidence that life in the colonies have enough material for what we now call dramatic or sentimental.
Bolívar, una lucha admirable (English: Bolívar, an admirable fight), or simply Bolívar, is a Colombian Spanish-language historical drama television series created by Juana Uribe, based on the life of Venezuelan liberator Simón Bolívar.
After Jorge and Leslie get married, they have problems conceiving children. (In real life, Jorge was diagnosed with primary ciliary dyskinesia when he was in his 50s, but prior to that, he was misdiagnosed as having cystic fibrosis.) Chris and Sam's romance is more carefree than Jorge and Leslie's.
Much like is depicted in the movie, the real Chris tragically passed away from a ruptured brain aneurysm at the age of 19, and his organs were later donated to six different people.
In episode eight, Jal returns from her audition to find Chris has been taken to hospital because he has suffered a subarachnoid haemorrhage, a result of the hereditary condition that his brother died of previously.

Aside from conjoined twins, no human is born with two hearts. But in the case of extreme heart disease, called cardiomyopathy, rather than receiving a donor heart and removing yours, doctors can graft a new heart on to your own to help share the work. This is more commonly known as a piggy-back heart.
According to history books, tuberculosis was responsible for the death of Simon Bolivar at the age of 47 years in 1830. The results of an autopsy performed by Alexandre Prospère Révérend, the French physician who cared for him during the terminal phase of his illness, have long been regarded as proof of the diagnosis.
Bolívar had enormous flaws, he made terrible mistakes. He would execute one person for treason and then let a very treasonous general get away with the same thing. He was uneven and trying to make it up as he went along. When you're operating like that — everything impromptu — it's difficult to build anything coherent.
However, with military victory won, Bolivar now faced myriad political conflicts. Opponents accused him of dictatorial excesses and tried to assassinate him. His vision of a united Latin America quickly crumbled. Hounded and ostracized he decided to leave South America for a life in exile.
Preproduction work and some postproduction was done at Santa Fe Studios, while the movie was filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Hawaii, Marin said.

It was a really heartfelt story based on true events but unfortunately not that well executed. It was what you'd expect from a movie on Netflix at this level. Worth the watch but not great.

Several years ago, the autopsy report of a totally brain-dead patient named TK who was kept on life support for nearly twenty years was published in the Journal of Child Neurology. He remains the individual kept on life support the longest after suffering total brain failure.
How long can a brain dead person live off life support?
But without brain function, the body eventually shuts down, unless there is medical intervention. Someone on a ventilator may appear to be breathing, but cannot breathe on their own. While the heart usually stops within 72 hours, it could continue beating for “a week or so,” Varelas said.
Living donation is typically safe for the donor. Most living donors go on to live active, healthy lives and can see the positive impact of their donation. While alive, you can donate one kidney, part of your liver, and certain other organs and tissues. 85% of people on the organ transplant waiting list need a kidney.
