Ben's tests went great today!!

This entry was posted on 4/30/2008 4:36 PM and is filed under Personal.

Many have been following my son Ben's story and know he was in for a procedure today at UCLA Medical Center. I want to let you-all -  it went great. They did not find a hole or any other problem while viewing his heart. Doctors said it looked great and strong! Ben was a total sport dealing with the day and the news was really great news. Wish we had a probable cause for the heart attack, but really glad surgery looks like it is not an issue at all!

Thanks for your posts, emails and prayers this past week. Ben will have some more tests over the next 2 weeks, but good news today!!

Thanks again,

Greg Vail Sax
