Bret Baier's Son has had 5 Open-Heart Surgeries

Brett, your son, Paul, just reading the article, I mean, I'm getting caught up on all that he's been through. He's had another open heart surgery that he has. He said, is this the fifth one that he's had since he was born? Yeah. Yeah, that's always tough. That last one was two years ago, but he's had five open heart surgeries and 10 angioplasties. He was born with five general heart defects. We didn't know at the beginning. And it started our journey at Children's National. And his first open heart surgery was when he was only 10 days old. So they reworked the heart the size of a walnut. And the surgeon reworked arteries like angel hair pasta so that the heart could beat the right way. And the fix was a donated baby aorta that didn't grow with him. So we had to get it replaced. And his last one, we hope, knock on wood, is the last, was a little bit two years ago. And so he is now 18. He is 6'3". He's a great golfer. How tall are you? You're not that tall. No, I'm 5'11". My younger son, who's 16, is a freshman, and he's 6'4". I said, thank God they look like me. I mean, there they are. I mean, I'm looking at the mailman saying, this guy's tall. Watch out.
