As most of you know, our grandson, Breck Charles Fewer, was born with a complex and rare heart defect known as Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS). To learn more about HLHS, please use the link below...it will take you to the Mayo Clinic website.

Breck spent the first 26 days of his life at Minneapolis Children's Hospital. The majority of this time was spent in the Cardiovascular Care Center (CVCC). The care that he received was absolutely exceptional...to say the least. We will be forever grateful to all the staff that took care of him...as well as the support that Joe & Lindsey received during this time.
The HeartBeat 5000 5K Walk/Run directly benefits the CVCC unit at Minneapolis Children's. It takes place on Saturday, June 27 at Father Hennepin Bluffs Part in Minneapolis. "Breck's Beating Buddies" is the team name that has been set up to honor Breck.
If you would like to join in on all the festivities on June 27, please register below. The registration cost for adults is $35, children ages 2-9 are $20 and the little ones (under 2 years old) are FREE!
If you are unable to walk/run with us...we hope you are able to make a donation to show your support for this outstanding cause.
On behalf of Joe, Lindsey, BRECK and, of course, G'pa John & G'ma Pam....we thank you!
