My only hope with creating this blog is to help families of a loved one affected by a Congenital Heart Defect (CHD). I am blessed to have an amazing CHD Baby (Chloe) who has inspired me to help make a difference! This blog is one of MANY wonderful resources out there, raising awareness and fighting for all of our CHD Babies!
Below is a short video with CHD Statistics and a recap of Chloe’s first year.
Since 2009, I’ve been advocating for mandatory Pulse Oximetry Screening of all babies born in Missouri. Visit my Pulse Oximetry page to see why this fast, easy and painless screening saves lives.
2013 is the beginning of my new journey – racing for CHD. My goal is to swim, bike or run my way to the finish line as much as possible this year, while raising CHD Awareness at the same time. For more details, check out the latest & greatest!
To have a photo of a CHD Baby, Adult or Angel added to my Heart Babies page, please email me your name, birthdate or angel date, CHD type and photo.
As a heart mommy, I know what many other heart families are going through. Please feel free to email me or post comments on the blog with any questions, thoughts or feelings you may have.
Would love to hear from you! Thank you to everyone for your support!
