CHD Picnic

Our whole family attended an "indoor picnic" on Sunday with other families who have been impacted by congenital heart defects. Here is a picture of me introducing Ethan to Sarah, an adult who was born with a CHD. She came to visit Ethan after his second surgery, and it was a special opportunity for me to be able to introduce them again. Sarah is showing Ethan that she has a scar on her chest, just like him. Sarah just had her pulmonary valve replaced about 6 months ago. She has had several open heart surgeries and they have all been done at Children's Mercy Hospital. They don't only perform open heart surgeries on children!
