There are many unknowns in life, especially when your child is about to be
born. There are even more when you know your child is about to be born with
congenital heart disease and defects. Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the
most common birth defect. In fact, 1 in 100 infants is born with CHD, which
is more than 1.3 million per year worldwide. Even after intervention through
surgery, there is no cure for CHD. It is a life-long battle. Heart warriors
are always at war, going through many battles from the moment they are born.
And there are many unknowns.
Although CHD can be scary, let’s never forget that our heart warriors
are:
• Strong
• Brave
• Courageous
• Resilient
The strength and resilience that heart warriors show is truly amazing and
inspiring. They beat the odds every time! They instill a lot of hope in
other heart warriors and their families and most everyone else. They teach
us to be strong and brave in everything we do. Are you brave enough? Prepare
to be inspired!
