Do you know what that is? 1 in 100 children die of congenital heart defects. Funding for pediatric aids and cancel is double than that of chds, yet, more children die of heart defects? Do I sound like I'm harping? I am on a mission, like I was last year. It is called "just tell one person" If only one more person knows just this much about congenital heart defects, maybe it will instigate them to learn more! More is needed to be done. Won't you tell just one person and spread the message. You can message me, and I will send you a link to learn about them. Today there are 35 congenital heart defects. Thanks for reading.

You can send me a link, you are one of my friends. My natural curiosity makes me want to learn about all kinds of medical things, and special needs children are my career field. Congenital heart defects go along with a number of other special needs that my kids experience.

I co moderate a support group called chd_babies on yahoo. I don't have any other link than that. I will find you some links to chds. Thanks for being curious, and doing all the special things you do!
