Congenital heart defects are the most common type of birth defect, affecting 1 out of every 100 infants. Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) accounts for a small percentage of all heart defects, but remains one of the most common causes of death in infants with congenital heart desease. Typically children with HLHS get 3 open heart surgeries. There is hope and more and more CHD warriors survive each year!

Decisions, Decisions!
Today we sent off sonograms to Dr. Galantowicz in Ohio and Dr Hanley in Stanford ca. We also made reservations at the Ronald McDonald house in Ohio for late November, We are looking forward to hearing from both surgeons and we have another meeting with Dr. Azakie in San Francisco at the end of the month. We are talking to many different people so we can make the best possible decision for our baby girl! We are meeting nice families from Ohio that have been through the beginning of what we are facing, this has been a great help for our family and makes us feel less alone and more optimistic! So thank you to all that have welcomed us into your lives! It means more than words can say!
