Original Toronto Star caption: Double miracle: The McKinnon family is happy and complete, thanks to a skilled team of surgeons at Toronto General Hospital. Last May, the team delivered baby Andy by caesarean section, then immediately performed life saving open heart surgery on his mother Sandy. Now Andy's a happy 9-month-old, capable of romping with his fully recovered mom, big sister Amy and dad Roger.
