Nearly 39 years ago, a toddler living in Cleveland Ohio was facing what was then considered an inescapable death sentence.
Like her four siblings before her, Elizabeth or"Lizzy" Craze was diagnosed with a genetic condition which would cause her tiny heart to fail. The condition is endocardial fibroelastosis.
Dr. Hollander is a pediatric cardiologist and Medical Director of the Pediatric Heart Transplant Program at Stanford Children's Health. In 1984, Lizzy was one of the youngest successful heart transplant recipients in the world. In 1986, former KPIX anchor Dave McElhatton traveled to Cleveland Ohio to meet up with Lizzy and her family.
