"She says she wants 30 kids. I said, 'Why don't you start with one?'"
Blake has made it no secret she wants a lot of kids, telling Allure, "I've always wanted a big family. I'd love 30 [children] if I could."
"I moved to Utah because of the snow, but I haven't been able to ski," Lively added. "I literally didn't have the heart to do it. Now, I'm excited about living the rest of my life instead of sitting around. Dr. Patel saved my life."
Ernie Lively became the first known patient to undergo retrograde gene therapy for the heart, in which a patient's own stem cells are injected into the heart to repair the damaged muscle and arteries, according to People.
Only half of the veteran actor's heart was functioning before the surgery, but now, Ernie is feeling better than ever.
"I woke up the other morning and told my wife, 'I haven't felt this good in years,'" he told the mag.
