Heart transplant patient OK after 28 yrs

Doctors marvel that Tony Huesman is still among the living. The suburban Washington Township man has defied the odds, living longer with a single transplanted heart than anyone else.

Huesman, 48, had a heart transplant 28 years ago. He recently went to Ohio State University for some testing.

"The doctors were just amazed that I was still around," said Huesman, who works as marketing director at a sporting-goods store. "I'm living proof a person can go through a life-threatening illness, have the operation and return to a productive life."
