Review for The Mended Hearts Inc, Leesburg, GA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

After the birth of my second heart son, and feeling ALL ALONE..... I decided that I needed to do something for heart families and let them know they are NOT ALONE. Shortly after my decision, I was introduced to Mended Little Hearts- and what it offers families with heart kiddos. I said "THIS IS IT". I took the bull by the horns and started a MLH chapter in my local hometown of Appleton. I met so many heart families, I educated them on living with heart children, I opened the eyes of the community to what CHD means, and I let everyone know they are NOT ALONE! Although I made a difference in my community, I helped other heart families, I spread awareness to physicians, elected officials and the general public- nothing can TOP what MLH did for MY heart and for my family. It helped me "heal" while helping other!! Mended Little Hearts is a great non-profit that I am honored to say "I am a part of"! HOPE~HELP~HEALING~

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

I would make it Protocol in every hospital that when a family is diagnosed with a CHD, a MLH advocate is brought into this families life; just like the genetic counselor, the intensivist. We should be introduced to this family- face to face by the physicians. Having this contact at the early stage of diagnosis is huge for the family. We should be a part of the continuity of care in the hospital programs and the hospitals should feel so grateful for what we can provide for their patients!
