I can’t wait!

I can’t wait to get my hands on this book!  I have been following Paul Cardall, award-winning pianist and CHD survivor, since well before his heart transplant and it has been amazing to follow his miraculous life and heart journey.  He was born in 1973 with tricuspid atresia and transposition of the great arteries.  The surgical plan to manage his CHD ultimately led him to the Fontan surgery, which is what Mary Clare will soon face.  He wasn’t born with HLHS, but ended up with a heart similar to Mary Clare’s.  His heart worked very hard post-Fontan most of his life, but eventually grew tired and sick.  In August of 2008, as a young husband and father, he was listed for a heart transplant and spent many months waiting for a heart .  On June 10, 2010, less than a year after his transplant, Paul hiked Mount Olympus!   I can’t wait to learn more about him!  What an amazing life!
