Hello, Everyone and welcome to Heart Strings Group!
We are based in Lufkin, Texas and are a support/awareness group for families affected by Congenital Heart Disease. If you or someone you love has CHD, please feel free to contact us regarding resources, meetings, support from people with like situations!
My family is affected by CHD. Our daughter, Sarah Kate is 4 1/2 and is soon to have her completion of the Fontan Procedure. (Her 3rd open heart surgery!) She is a picture of health other than her heart problems and we are so blessed by her. I feel very strongly that God gave her to us to strengthen us through Him and also to help others. I would have never been aware of all of the problems children with CHD face if I wasn't blessed with a child of CHD, myself. She is the best thing that has ever happened to our family of four. Our son, Jason, 10 years old is a compassionate and caring person because of Sarah's ordeal. He sees the need to help others and loves getting a chance to do so. We are so thankful for all of these things.
I will be posting a link to her story in the links section.
If you know of any helpful links that would be useful to others concerning CHD...please email email them!
Our email is heartstringsgroup@yahoo.com
We would love to hear your stories and see photos of your children of CHD to be featured monthly on our blog! Email them to the above email please! Your story could help someone else!
Our first meeting will be Tuesday, June 23, 2009 at 7 p.m. at Southside Baptist Church in Lufkin. (Across from Livewell Athletic Club on Tulane Drive)
Thanks and WELCOME!
