Description
CBS 8 has been following the story of a teenager who needed a new heart, and finally, we can bring you the happy ending. 14-year-old Mario Luna has been on the road to recovery after his heart transplant back in January, and CBS 8’s Brian White was at Rady Children’s Hospital for his grand sendoff.
“I just want to thank everyone for doing their best and working hard enough to do every opportunity to save my life and to help me get better,” said Luna to dozens of doctors and nurses who gathered to applaud and cheer him. “Thank you, guys, I really appreciate it.”
