♥ Congenital heart defects are America’s #1 birth defect. Nearly one of every 100 babies is born with a CHD. Congenital heart defects are the #1 cause of birth defect related deaths.
♥ In the U.S., twice as many children die from congenital heart defects each year than from all forms of childhood cancer combined.
Did you have any idea? Pretty astounding, right? Please help spread the word about congenital heart defects!
Stay tuned for more CHD Awareness posts throughout this week! And can I just say THANK YOU to the amazing family, friends, church family, heart moms and online friends I haven't even met who have followed our journey with Chase's special heart and have supported us and prayed for us throughout the past several years. I'm very blessed by your love and support!
