3-Year-Old Gets Heart Transplant On Valentine's Day
A 3-year-old Gaston County girl has a real heart to enjoy on Valentine's Day.
The Gaston Gazette reports that Trinity Lazo of Ranlo received a long-awaited heart transplant Thursday and is recuperating from surgery.
Trinity needed the transplant after suffering from dilated cardiomyopathy, a condition that enlarges and weakens the heart. One week ago, a mechanical heart was implanted as a temporary fix.
