This just isn't right. Normally athletes are supposed to have strong hearts from all the exercise they get. He is still young too.
I don't know the success rates of heart transplants anymore, but my preconceived notion is that it's a death sentence.

Not even close. Recognizing that you can't read this. But survival rates five years after a transplant are excellent.
