Our 14-year old man survived risky surgery and got good news it wasn’t cancer!

We found a cyst on Howie’s chest that didn’t heal correctly after antibiotics. He has a 4/6 grade heart murmur so anesthesia can be risky. Fortunately the procedure went great and the cyst came back and non-cancerous, just very infected. He’s wearing a hand tie-dyed tank until the stitches come out.
