Mike Vallely calls Owen at the hospital

My son had just had surgery to repair a birth defect in his heart. He is a huge fan of professional skateboarder Mike Vallely (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Vallely), so on a whim I decided to try and get a message to Mike to see if he could give my son a call. He called within minutes, but unfortunately my son had just gone for an x-ray. So he said he would call back and we were ready with our cameras. This is a video of that call.

Here's a link to Mike's YouTube page with some amazing footage of not only his abilities, but it also highlights what an amazing human being he his. http://www.youtube.com/user/mikevallely
