Hope Sansbury, little girl who needs a heart transplant, will dress as Tin Man for Halloween

Hope Sansbury's mom isn't dressing her as the Tin Man just to honor a book or movie. The Halloween costume has a lot more significance: Like the "Wizard of Oz" character, Hope needs a heart. John and Tess Sansbury, Hope's parents, learned their girl would be born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. It's a condition in which the part of her heart that should pump oxygen-rich blood to the rest of her body wasn't fully developed. In her three months, Hope has proven to be a fighter.
