A video of him telling the hospital staff about finding a donor's heart was shared on social media. The heartwarming video shows Henry walking up to nurses and doctors and excitedly telling them that he is all set to get better.
The official social media handle of Cleveland Clinic shared his video, which has tugged at the hearts of many. The video opens to show Henry telling a nurse about the donor heart. The nurse, in response, jumps in happiness and teases Henry.
Similarly, other people at the hospital express their happiness for the young one and congratulate him. While sharing the video, the Cleveland Clinic informed, "John-Henry was born with a rare congenital heart condition called hypoplastic left heart syndrome or HLHS. It's where one side of the heart doesn't develop correctly.
The heart's left side is too small to pump enough blood to the rest of the body." (Also Read: Bengaluru landlord, who didn't raise rent for 5 years, is the greenest flag ever. Reddit agrees ) His mom, Sarah, told the clinic, "Organ donation saved my son's life.
