Life Is Not Measured By the Number of Breaths We Take,
But By the Moments That Take Our Breath Away.
You will forever take our breaths away...
In Honor of our son Severin, we bring CHD and HLHS awareness
and Hope through the Resources and Love on this website.
HLHS...There is Hope!
Most children born with Congenital Heart Defects are now expected to survive into adulthood and beyond. We have set up this website in our son Severin’s memory to help bring awareness, and provide educational resources about HLHS and Congenital Heart Defects (CHD’s). Here we are hoping to let parents know about the wonderful resources and options in medical treatments that can help children diagnosed HLHS.
Congenital heart disease is one or more defects in the structure of the heart. For reasons not fully understood, about eight out of 1,000 babies will be born with a congenital heart defect. A heart defect once meant a shortened lifespan, but medical advances now offer the hope of a brighter future.
An interactive, 3D app for iPhones, iPads and Android Devices. The app shows anatomically accurate images of Congenital Heart Defects and repairs of those defects.
We are updating links and info on this site so some pages will link out to our original informational pages.
