Mirror boy Max Johnson has paid a moving tribute to his heart donor to mark the new organ donation law named in their honour.

The caring lad, 12, vows to “cherish” nine-year-old Keira Ball’s “gift” in a touching video clip. Max and Keira’s Law will mean everyone is a donor unless they opt out.

The video shows him with Keira’s parents Joe and Loanna Ball – who he calls his “second family” – at his home in Winsford, Cheshire.

Max says: “If it was not for Keira and her parents’ decision to donate then I probably would not be sitting here. I love Keira’s family like a second family, seriously I do. “Thank you for saying yes.
