<h2 class="subtitle">In October 1995, newborn Morgan Hill was left for dead by her mother in a dumpster in Hoffman Estates</h2>
<p class="paragraph">It was just two years ago that 20-year-old Morgan Hill learned she had been the subject of major news headlines across Chicago as an infant.<br />
In October 1995, Hill, who was a newborn, was left for dead by her mother in a dumpster in suburban Hoffman Estates. She was rescued by a construction worker who was dropping off garbage.<br />
“He was dropping off the last load of trash from the construction area he was working on,” Hill said. “Before he dropped it in, he heard a whimper. He found a white kitchen bag that was double knotted.”</p>

<p class="paragraph">Hill was taken to a nearby hospital, where nurses named her Mary Grace. She was later adopted and became Morgan Hill.<br />
After learning the story of how she was saved, Hill set out to find the construction worker who saved her.<br />
“I have known I was adopted my entire life,” she said. “But two years ago I found the full story, and I have been trying to find that construction worker ever since.”<br />
NBC affiliate KHSB tracked down the construction worker, Gerald Rocky Hyatt, and on April 20 Hill was reunited with the man she now calls her “guardian angel.”<br />
“I broke into tears and the first thing I said was, ‘Thank you,’” Hill said. “He said to me, ‘Baby girl, you are so loved.’&#8221;<br />
Then he gave Hill an angel pin he has had for more than 20 years.<br />
&#8220;I&#8217;ve worn it every day since,&#8221; Hill said.</p>

Morgan Hill had no idea that her life story had dominated Illinois headlines years before</strong></h6>

<strong>Hyatt, holds baby Morgan at the hospital on the day he rescued her.</strong></h6>
<p class="paragraph">Hill’s adoptive mother, Sandi Hill, has kept many of the clippings about baby Mary Grace in a binder. This month, she added a picture given to her by the construction worker, whom she credits with giving her the daughter she always wanted.<br />
“Rocky said God brought us together and he was so right,” she said.<br />
Morgan Hill said she’s not only grateful to Hyatt for saving her life, but she hopes her story will help save others.<br />
“I could not thank him enough,” Hill said. “He gave me a chance to live a second life. Because if he didn&#8217;t find me, I would not be here to help others and show soon-to-be mothers that there are so many options out there and you don&#8217;t have to throw your baby away.”</p>
