Reef was born in critical condition with a massive brain aneurysm . Rady Children ’ s Hospital-San Diego neurosurgeons saved his life using 3D technology to model newborn Reef ’ s tiny neurovascular system and guide the life-saving precision neurosurgery . Now , life ’ s a beach for Reef and his family in Point Loma , where the strong , playful 7-year-old loves surfing and paddle boarding with his dad , wrestling , eating , dancing , and just being a happy little boy .
