Meet Lincoln!

This little bundle of joy arrived August 7, 2012.  He was born without complications and appeared healthy as could be. Lincoln was the first boy born to his family in 22 years. Everything was going as it should until his routine 2 week old checkup. He was immediately sent to a Pediatric Heart Specialist.

At just 16 days old Lincoln was diagnosed with Complete Atrioventricular Septal Defect. His family was told that he would need open heart surgery not only to correct the defect, but also to survive. Lincoln has visited the doctor every month since birth to keep a close watch on his broken heart.

Lincoln was hospitalized during the week of Christmas 2013.  It was decided that surgery could no longer be postponed.

 Lincoln will undergo surgery on May 13th, at the tender age of 21 months old.
