Retired NFL tight end Greg Olsen's son TJ rang the hospital bell Wednesday after recovering from a successful heart transplant.

The eight-year-old was born with a congenital heart defect that required him to get a pacemaker and undergo four surgeries. He was hospitalized in May with a failing heart and went on the transplant list. 

Two weeks ago, he received a new heart. 

"Hi everybody. Thank you for thinking of me. Thank you for praying with me," he said in an Instagram video posted by his father on June 7 after undergoing surgery. "... We love you guys, bye.''
