The Heart Throbs

As many of you know, our son Jackson was born with an extremely large VSD and multiple ASD's, large holes in his heart that put him into congestive heart failure when he was born. It took us 7 weeks of feeding him around the clock for him to gain one pound and be large enough to go on bypass for open heart surgery. Countless doctor's appointments, tons of tests and blood draws, culminating with a massive surgery on his tiny body, and yet, we are so grateful. Grateful that he is now a thriving 8 year old who loves hockey and his friends and family. Grateful that he is here to be an incredible big brother. Grateful that he runs, jumps, and doesn't stop moving, all while not being out of breath. And grateful for the CHF community, research and funding that made it all possible. A special thanks to his godfather Tommy who has represented the CHF with such pride for his little heart warrior. We hope to pass on that support, love, and financial assistance to other heart warriors, and we walk in honor of heart angels. Thank you for your support!

This chartiy means everything to us.  The research that is funded through CHF saved our son, has saved countless heart warriors, and honors those who are now heart angel babies.  We walk and think of you little warriors, we walk for you Jackson, because you can!
