My dad had worked for united airlines at reno cannon international airport ,he had to have a emergency heart transplant in salt lake city,ut , over night i found my self in utah, 9th grade i volunteered 300 hours at the university of utah hospital,while my dad went through a very complex sugery after awaiting a donor heart to come in by chopper. It was unbelievible advancements in cardio tecnolgy.It was successfull my dad had the best doctors from stanaford and around the world ,to make the best cardic unit in the world, and my dad became the 297th person in the world to have a human heart transplant. So i took atavantage of  the opportunity to ski the greatest snow on earth snowbird,parkcity ut, 5 foot of pure powder unbelievable. Two years later the heart rejected and my dad had to await a second hearttransplant to be flown in by twinturbo mediflight from a car accident in canada. 2 and a half hours it arrived in a icechest.,it also was a success so we moved back to merced ,ca .my dad lived 12 to 14 years with someone elses heart in him. more of a man than i ever could be.
