Helping Save Our Boy's Heart
Benevolent Heart was our family's idea for helping save our little boy's heart. He was born October 4th 2014 here in Phoenix Arizona under dyer straights. At only 20 weeks gestation we learned that he would be born with only half a heart. The most severe congenital heart defect there is, which is called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. To say the least, we were heart
broken. After much research, and long talks with doctors, we began the journey to save his life. Without surgical intervention, he would die. So, at only 5 days old he received his first open heart surgery. Then, a second at 5 months old. His remaining open heart surgery will take place when he is 3 years old. After having many hospital stays under our belt, many life saving medications to be administered every day numerous times a day, and two therapy appointments every week, our boy is finally a healthy little firecracker of a 10 month old boy. As you can imagine, the medical finances are tremendous. Each purchase eases our minds to know how much it will help with the best medical care he can receive. Each piece is unique and singularly made, most donning a heart in some shape or form. These hearts are a symbol of our boys courage and bravery. Please carry it with you. Please wear it with pride, knowing you helped his sweet baby heart and its now steady beat. From our little family, to yours, thank you.
