In honor of Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week (February 7-14), we at the program for HLHS wanted to share this touching video. We, too, have hope to one day find a cure for the amazing warriors of CHD. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qxE_1_6TC8 For more information, please visit the CHD Awareness Week website, or visit the CHD Awareness Week Facebook page and add a 'twibbon' to your Facebook profile to show your support.

The Todd and Karen Wanek Family Program for Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) is a collaborative network of specialists bonded by the vision of delaying or preventing heart failure for individuals affected by congenital heart defects including HLHS. The specialized team is addressing the various aspects of these defects by using research and clinical strategies ranging from basic science to diagnostic imaging to regenerative therapies.
