Each year, 40,000 children are born with some form of congenital heart disease. In a world of tubes and oxygen, surgeries and beeping monitors, parents and medical teams battle to keep their tiny hearts beating against the odds - but it’s the children themselves who are the true heroes.

priya maurya hi Priya! I can’t speak for others, but my quality of life has been great! I’m almost 37, I have a great career in higher education, I’m married, I sing in my church music band, I love swimming in the pool with my family, we enjoy traveling, I did play some sports as a younger teenager in school. My oxygen level is always above 95, and I feel great. Life hasn’t been perfect, but it has been pretty close to it! I can’t complain. I’m blessed. 🙌🏻 I wish you the best and will be praying for your son. 🙏🏻

I don’t know really anything about congenital heart disease.. but recently these amazing youtubers I watch (Phil & Alex) went for a screening & found out their baby girl will have congenital heart disease. I know there’s nothing I can say or do to fix this or make them feel all better but maybe I can educate myself & tell others what I’ve learnt so there’s a bigger awareness. I have to ask that whatever religion you believe in, please pray to your god about this family. They have a journey ahead of them and could use every single prayer.

our son is 19 now, played sax in highschool band, rebuilt his own truck, Autocrosses my mustang, has a wonderful girlfriend, recently started DJing part time on a local country station(maybe from the months on the vent, but when his voice changed, it REALLY changed- sounds 10 times bigger than him), he did try to get into the AirForce, but was declined due to the heart/lung history- but hes been working steadily since he was 16, saves his money, wants to buy a new dodge charger...so easy to forget those scary days long ago as he went thru his three open hearts, two caths before 3 months old and under 6 pounds... God Bless our Little Miracles!

About how it’s the scariest but most rewarding job in the world. This video touched my heart. And I thank the team who filmed it and put it out there for the world to see a brief few moment in the life of a heart parent.

Thank you Today Show! I am a 27 year old with CHD. I have a CHD known as Tetralogy Of Fallot Absent Pulmonary Valve. I have had two open heart surgeries. Thanks to my congenital heart team at the Helen B. Taussig Congenital Heart Center at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center I am alive. I am 1 in 100! I am a CHD warrior! Thank you for bringing awareness to CHD. I have had a lot of issues over the last couple of years and I have now been on heart function medication for a little over 2 years. Since I have had my heart function medication my heart function has been better. I am so lucky to have a great team who has fought to keep me alive. I am grateful to be alive. CHD is a tough battle, but I keep fighting every day. Thank you so much for the awareness!

My heart function was more stable on the last echo. Hoping to hear that my heart function continues to be stable with my medication.

Here doing research for a short documentary telling our heart failure story which happened with our 16 year old son in 2022. It's approaching 1 year now and I'm starting to dig through all of the video, pictures, and audio of that time. As well as watching videos like this to see some examples of what's already out there. I knew this would be hard but, I didn't realize it would be THIS hard! Going through all of this material is like being thrust back into that ICU room at Duke. Taking script notes through all of the tears is nearly impossible sometimes. Much love to all of those families who are dealing with heart disease, especially those families whose heart disease story involves their children.

My son is here at Motts right now! And he has Hypoplastic Right heart and after he was born some how some way his pulmonary valve started working when it was not before. The did a procedure on him a few days ago that is trying to grow the right side of his heart! All the parts of the heart are there and working! And the doctors can’t explain how this happened. Because during the pregnancy and the day he was born he had pulmonary atresia. And a few days later the valve had grew to full size and started working. He’s a medical miracle and has great recovered from his surgery! The plan is to grow the right ventricle And he could end up with a two ventricle heart, Atleast a 1.5 ventricle heart! This changes his whole life and he could have a normal heart after all!! Thank you Motts surgery and nursing team! And thank you for the thoughts and prayers! Miracles do happen ,he is proof! We will be going home in a few short weeks!!🙏👼🏻❤️

the first day our son was at Rainbow's NICU, a little girl in the next isolette was failing...youre like 6 feet away, cant help but hear doctors explaining nothing more can be done, they took their little 6 hour old daughter and held her for the first and last time in a little room off to the side...oh how i hated being there, your heart goes out to those folks- nurses and doctors too- for what they are going thru, but soon, the mind races- was our son next? could we deal with it if he was? you just want to scream... think I stood there all night like a zombie, people came and went, but it was just surreal...in the end the thing that to this day has stuck in my mind was- that little girl never got to see a single sunset, yet how many times had I been upset over a bad day at work/car breakdown/the worst relationship failure/etc...all are moot in the grand scheme of things- how did I have any right to the 'poor me' stuff- that little kid never got even one sunset. tell you what, I havent NOT noticed a single sunset since, and someday when my time comes, hope to tell that little girl all about them...we all take so much for granted. My son made it thru his heart ordeal, three open hearts, two caths in under three months, weighing under 6 pounds- hes 19 now, works hard, is a fine young man...forgetting those scary days with the alarms, the 'bag' to get them breathing again, the hopeless fear as they go down to surgery, and so much more is oddly 'easy' sometimes- the rollercoaster ride is one most folks will thankfully never know, but to those that have, the good/bad days often come flooding back- and they need not ever be forgotten...we were there for a reason- trying to remind folks not to take things for granted is sooo hard to express, even if youve been there seeing the successes and failures, its still near impossible to put the thoughts to words... so sorry about your friends daughter - I know how you feel.

I have tricuspid atresia, pulmonary stenosis, and 6 other heart defects. I was also born with a benign cyst in my brain and two right thumbs. My first four years of my life was spent in and out of the hospital. I was even isolated from other children because my immune system was so weak and now my social-emotional development isn't as matured as others. I have a learning disability and mental health problems. I'm Guatemalan and bisexual as well and when I was born my parents weren't married so it was difficult to take care of me and my parents could've abandoned me but they didn't.

I thank God blessing us with these doctors who are such a blessing. But I give all the glory to my loving God and saviour Jesus Christ. When he says yes. No one can say no. I pray for every person who is going through this in Jesus Christ mighty name Amen. ✝️

I am the wife of a Pediatric Cardiologist who is newly retired. I view all these babies, children, adults as "family" I never met but integral to our life as an actual family. The next challenge is discovery of the molecular basis of heart development, where science and clinical medicine converge.

Catherine Marchand thank you to both you and your husband! I have transposition of the great vessels and I was the youngest to have the Schumacher repair in 1980 in Minnesota. Obviously I am thanking your husband for all of the lives he has saved and helped. I thank you as well for always being there for your husband to get him through those bad days when he may have lost a patient or something didn’t go as planned. It takes a lot to be there for a spouse who is on call 24/7 weekdays, weekends and holidays. You are right, patients see their cardiologists like family, my cardiologist and heart surgeon were invited to my wedding. Unfortunately my cardiologist was working but my surgeon was able to come and he got a standing ovation because without him I would not be here! My first year I spent Easter, Memorial Day, Fourth of July and New Year’s Eve and New Years day in the hospital. Again thank you so both so much for your love, hard work and family-like support to your husbands patients! ❤️

Such a time to be living, where a baby born with a cardiac disease that meant a sure death not that many decades ago, now have a great chance to fully grow up and live long, long lives!

I have written a multi-award-winning story about our experience entitled, Incompatible with Nature-A Mother’s Story. (Amazon) Boston Children’s cardiologist Dr. Michael D. Freed wrote the forward. In part: “Much less commonly, perhaps one in one hundred thousand, there seems to be a problem with the bilaterally and there is only one atrium, one ventricle or one vessel leaving the heart. When there are variations of venous return to the atrium there may be variations in the position of the abdominal organs and veins, usually called heterotaxy syndrome. In Marc’s case he had one of these heterotaxy syndromes with all the systemic veins coming back to the heart entering into a “common” atrium, a single large ventricle, and only one great vessel leaving the heart, in Marc’s case the aorta. The pulmonary artery, the vessel going to the lungs was not connected to the heart…” Basically, my son, Marc, was born with only half of his heart. My story chronicles my journey of doing all I could to ensure my son had a chance at life while battling my own fears, an array of naysaying doctors, his innumerable infections, and struggling with a foreign language in Germany-where the doctors told me to let him die. I fought for Marc’s life and thankfully, despite the prognosis and the difficulties, Marc is today thirty-five years old and thriving. I have written this story to inspire doctors and caregivers to be more empathetic for their charges and to encourage patients to be courageous and assertive in their health care. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video.

I felt there was no hope for my health and I was to try the Protocol thinking it wouldn’t work because I have visited so many hospital but same result. However, I was convinced by my friend to try the herbal medicine because I wanted to get rid of Heart attach. The herbal mixture that was given to me was really quick and easy to take, and since I have been taking it for less than 5 days I have less outbreak. But within 2 week i was fully cured from Heart attack The herbal medicine really work and I will like to share this great herb doctor contact with you all email him drsalato9@gmail.com or WhatsApp +2348073823302

Hi everyone! Thank you so much. My son is now 2 years old and had 2 heart surgeries to correct 4 conditions so far. PDA, CDA, VSD and aortic stenosis. Although the aortic area is still experiencing higher blood flow pressure due to having 2 valves that are slightly curved and a muscle mass near it, he is well and is a very active toddler. :) there may be a need for another surgery in the future if the pressure to the aorta is too much, but that’s not until maybe when he’s a teen or an adult. My channel name changed but I’m the original poster. :) thank you for your prayers

I never leave comments, merely only read them, but I just learned today 2/3/23 that my unborn (first child) has CHD. Needless to say that’s a gut punch I don’t wish on ANY expecting parents. I believe in God and his miracle working power but even if my bundle of joy is born and we have to go through this cycle, I’m doing it with God’s covering knowing my lady, my baby, and I can endure. Thanks for reading this comment and if you have any spare prayers, we’d love for you to send one out for our baby girl. ❤
