Our Bridie Bean had surgery at 4 months old for a congenital heart defect called ALCAPA that we had found out about 2 days prior to her surgery. Being the strong girl she is she absolutely rocked her hospital stay and recovery and has been growing and thriving since then. We feel so incredibly grateful for the care that we recieved and the medical advancements that we benefitted from and we want to make sure every heart family is given a fighting chance in their battles. We raise for CHF out of gratitude and hope for the future of all the heart warriors.
