Adventures of a Funky Heart!

This morning I found this blog of a 41 year old CHD survivor. What an inspiration! It is difficult finding adults out there who are living with serious heart defects. The repairs that Maddie has and will continue to have are still fairly new in the medical world. Some of the statistics we've heard for her growing up with her "half-heart" makes you cringe, so it's so uplifting to find an adult out there living with a heart similar to our daughter's. For you heart mom's out there, may you find hope in reading his blog.

Wow, after reading through his blog a little bit, I can see why this is such a great blog for you heart mothers. He seems to be a really funny and upbeat person. I loved how he wrote about going to the the Pediatrician when he was 30years old...being the "oldest kid in the room."
