He has blueberry pancakes every morning for breakfast,” says John Matise, father to 6-year-old Zachary Matise. Zachary’s mother, Ann Matise, adds, “He had surgery on his appendix Friday night. He has to get rid of a fever before we can leave. This is Zack’s first time at UCLA Health. Well, he was born here, but this is his first time as a patient. It’s a great team here to help us.
