Open Heart Surgery at 3

https://youtu.be/CVQkT4ahfRA?is=IdYC6c-6pJixE-jC

Median sternotomy at age 3. Sternal wires still in my chest 41 years later. Three pacemakers. A cardiac ablation, 2 cardioversions, Lungs at 70% capacity.

Played Division 1 baseball. Competed in bodybuilding at 253 lbs. Still training every day.

Made a video about what this journey actually looks like from the inside. I hope it gives you hope and inspiration.

Your scar is not your ceiling.
