Young Kenneth's father smiles as the boy is off for a day of fun with fishing pole and bike, proof of his amazing recovery from operation in which surgeons at the Yale New Haven Medical Center re-routed part of his blood circulation to permanently by-pass the right side of his heart in order to treat congenital defects in Kenneth's heart.
