Lebanon High School Student Awaiting Heart Transplant



Students, teachers and members of the community gathered tonight to help a student from Lebanon High School.  Sophomore Ryan Robinette was diagnosed with an enlarged heart when he was just four months old.  Now, at age 16, Ryan's heart is failing.

Ryan has been at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital for the last two months waiting on a heart transplant.  So far his school has raised about $6,000 to help the family with medical bills.  Tonight Lebanon High hosted a benefit concert.
