Photo: Loma Linda University Medical Center Cutline: Baby Fae was born prematurely with hypoplastic left-heart syndrome, a lethal underdevelopment of the left side of the heart. In a controversial and daring attempt to save her life, Dr. Leonard L. Bailey and his surgical team at Loma Linda University Medical Center transplanted the heart of a donor baboon into Baby Fae's chest on Oct. 26, 1984, 12 days after her birth. |

Rearick, Loma Linda University Medical Center Cutline: On November 8, 1984, 13 days after her historic cross-species heart transplant surgery at Loma Linda University Medical Center, Baby Fae (25 days old) listens to her mother's voice on the telephone. Her mother, who had a cold, was unable to be in the room with her. Baby Fae, who was fussing just prior to the phone call, immediately quieted after hearing her mother's voice. |

Cutline: Eddie Anguiano, also known as Baby Moses, is the world's oldest living survivor of infant heart transplantation. He received his heart at Loma Linda University Medical Center on November 20, 1985, when he was four days old. He is shown in this photo on his day of discharge, Jan. 2, 1986, when he was 6-1/2 weeks old. The historic cross-species heart transplant involving Baby Fae paved the way for the successful and equally historic human-to-human infant transplant involving Baby Moses. |
