Shane Bowman / Edmonton, Canada / July 11, 2003

Twelve-year-old Shane Bowman plays with his old heart in Edmonton, Canada. Bowman had a heart transplant and got a chance to see his old heart to have some closure on his illness. Bowman had dilated cardiomyopathy, a condition caused by a virus, and his heart was enlarged to about 555 grams. A normal heart is about 200 grams.
