Nationwide Children's Hospital's Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Dr. Mark Galantowicz, performed a bloodless heart transplant on a 6-year-old boy -- one of the youngest to undergo this procedure. The Heart Center at Nationwide Children's is one of only a few pediatric institutions that has the resources to perform bloodless heart transplants.

  • Wow........... This is just so amazing!!! I was one of the first Jehovah's Witness that had a bloodless open heart surgery at this hospital back in 2003. It was a very trying time!!! The surgeon at the time said that something overcame him and gave him a different way to approach the surgery. I knew right then that Jehovah was going to oversee the whole thing, and I was in good hands!!! 

  • God gave the doctors the knowledge and He watched over the young boy getting the surgery. Praise God and thank the doctor.

  • Awesome,great to see that smile on the boy's face,on the parent's knowing they've pleased Jehovah,and of course great to see our faith vindicated.

  • He looks amazing! Well done!

  • The boy looks very healthy. Well done to the surgeons for this accomplishment. An excellent News story. Thanks.
