My Brave Heart Warrior - Paperback

by Jennifer Diaz (Author), Andrew Laitinen (Illustrator)

There are many unknowns in life, especially when your child is about to be born. There are even more when you know your child is about to be born with congenital heart disease and defects. Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect. In fact, 1 in 100 infants is born with CHD, which is more than 1.3 million per year worldwide. Even after intervention through surgery, there is no cure for CHD. It is a life-long battle. Heart warriors are always at war, going through many battles from the moment they are born. And there are many unknowns.

Although CHD can be scary, let's never forget that our heart warriors are:

- Strong

- Brave

- Courageous

- Resilient

The strength and resilience that heart warriors show is truly amazing and inspiring. They beat the odds every time! They instill a lot of hope in other heart warriors and their families and most everyone else. They teach us to be strong and brave in everything we do.

Are you brave enough? Prepare to be inspired!
