On Wednesday, 10 May, hospital officials in Pennsylvania tried to contact a family awaiting a heart transplant. Their son's organ had arrived and he needed to get to surgery immediately. The mom's cell phone was turned off due to attendance at a jazz concert, so the Pennsylvania State Police called Sprint Mobile to track the family's phone using GPS. The concert was stopped, the family's name announced, the boy was whisked away in the nick of time, while the crowd offered a standing ovation.He was in critical but stable condition Thursday morning, his mother told CBS's "The Early Show."
