Jordan Marcia is an amazing survivor! He shares with Guest Host, Megan Tones, his unconventional medical history which included being born with transposition of the great arteries, multiple failed surgeries to palliate his heart condition, the development of a potentially-threatening lung condition known as plastic bronchitis and then the miracle of a heart transplant that eliminated the plastic bronchitis altogether. Tune in to hear Jordan's story about what other condition threatened his life and how it was treated. Discover why Jordan thinks he should make it to the age of 40 even though most transplant patients only survive for 10 years post-transplant. You'll also discover the link to Jordan's own channel and how you can learn more about this miraculous young man.
