Happy Heart Month

Happy Heart Month!! Congenital heart defects are the #1 birth defect. About 1 out of every 100 Babies are born each year with some type of CHD (approx. 40,000/year) My mom and Will are two of those people! Let's spread awareness and pray for all those with Heart Defects!

Below is a trailer for the Hearts of Hope Movie. It is about Michel Ilbawi, M.D. who leads the pediatric heart surgical team at The Heart Institute for Children. Headquartered at Hope Children’s Hospital in Oak Lawn, Illinois, they perform over 400 operations and care for more than 3,500 children with heart defects each year. With over 25 years experience as a pediatric heart surgeon and more than 20,000 surgeries performed, Dr. Ilbawi is nothing short of a miracle-worker to the families whose children he treats daily.

Scott and I are thankful everyday for doctor's that treat William. Dr. Delaney and Dr. Hammel along with all the nurses and the staff at Children's have given us Hope.
