MASON IN THE NEWSPAPER

Friends plan fundraiser for 2-year-old Highland boyHIGHLAND"-- Miracle Mason got his new heart.

Now his neighbors are seeking help so the heart won't cost his family everything they have.

The Strickland family of Highland has been living in two states for months, ever since 2-year-old Mason and his mother, Summer, went to California to get the toddler on a list for a heart transplant. Mason was diagnosed with hypoplastic left heart syndrome shortly after he was born and has spent his short life in and out of hospitals.
