How a stomachache turned into a heart transplant at Rady Children's Hospital

A Culver City teen who has dreams of being an NBA star complained of a stomachache, two weeks later he got a heart transplant.

I'm so sorry they've had to go through this but so happy for him that he was saved. This definitely could've had a far worse ending. And good for him for quickly recognizing he needed to go to the hospital immediately.

So glad this nice little kid is here to tell his story!

240 bpm! Wow! So lucky he got a heart from a donor that fast! Glad his surgery went well.

Lucky boy. I know that I am NOT the only one who is thinking one VERY specific thing and genetic predisposition is not it/main cause.
