Our son, Adrian, was diagnosed with Tetralogy of Fallot during our anatomy ultrasound. Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is a combination of four congenital heart defects. Research has allowed babies who receive this once fatal diagnosis to have a chance at surgery and living a long and happy life. However, Adrian never got the chance to have any of these surgeries. Due to other congenital defects, Adrian was stillborn on March 28, 2020.
We have found that raising funds for CHD research to help other babies and children is a meaningful way to honor Adrian's memory. We want to help other babies have the chance of a life that Adrian didn't get.
Adrian would have turned 5 this year, so I want to make this year's Run for Adrian even more special. We have shirts being made (see the posted link to order!) Big thanks to A Touch of Teddy for making them! Can we hit our fundraising goal as well? That would be super awesome. As always, we love all of you, and are so grateful for the love and support you have shown us these last 5 years as we remember and honor our sweet boy. ❤️
