Man receives heart transplant, back on bicycle a few weeks later . . .

The KCStar tells the story of John Fairbanks, who suffered a heart attack while in his mid 30s that eventually led him to receive a heart transplant:

"He had no warning whatsoever that he was having a heart attack," Farhoud said. "When he came to see me, he said, 'I want you to do something because I can't live like this. I'm young and I have a young family.' He was in tears."

Fairbanks, a father of two, was sent to LDS Hospital in Salt Lake City, where he received the heart of a 19-year-old from Montana two weeks later.

"I felt better instantaneously. I guess I didn't know how sick I was, because you're in denial and you don't notice it too much because it's you," he said.

A few weeks later, he was back on his bicycle.
