Incredible Story about HLHS!

Message from Dad:

Attached is a link about an amazing story about a young girl that was diagnosed with HLHS in utero. Doctors tried a relatively new procedures to actually correct this defect before the child was born. It is truly an amazing story and this country is so blessed to have such skilled and talented people that perform these types of surgeries and provide care for both children and adults. Each day I am truly amazed by the medical profession. Yes, I know there are a lot of issues and problems with the health care industry. I am not here to debate that. I am here to just thank and marvel at the individuals that we have come across due to our son's condition. They are all truly amazing people and have such special talents and gifts. We are grateful to all of them and it would take days, even weeks, to name them all here. Maybe one day, with the aid of Katie's wonderful memory, we can cite the names on this blog. In the meantime, they all know who they are.
