His heart was transplanted at 19.
And his life was transformed.
Lavan Chxeidze
Heart transplant survivor /Design student
Lavan couldn't believe what the doctor told him at age 19: you need a transplant. Lavan's heart
was damaged at birth — escaping detection — until he felt weakened and collapsed. Fortunately,
the Heart Failure and Transplantation Team at Westchester Medical Center utilized highly
specialized life support, gave him a new heart and renewed his spirit.
