Getting to know Ralph Berg, the pioneering open-heart surgeon, was not easy. Many years passed before he was willing to divulge what informed so much of his later work: Jason, his youngest son. But Ralph Berg's own story began many decades before Jason's birth.

Ralph became a doctor during World War II and quickly grew fascinated with the human heart. After his chest residency, he assembled a remarkable heart and research team that helped bring open-heart surgery and advanced surgical procedures on blue babies to Spokane, Washington, in 1959. Then, in 1969, with the medical community on the cusp of discovering the cause and treatment of heart attacks, Jason was born to Ralph and Mary Berg-a doomed blue baby.
