Heart Mom Interview | Conoventricular Septal Defect | CHD Birth Story

Thank you Lacey for sharing your story with the CHD community!

Lacey's daughter, now one at the time of this video, was born with a Conoventricular Septal Defect 7 1/2mm wide, mild pulmonary stenosis, and a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Her daughter recently completed the required heart surgery, which makes Lacey's list of items to bring to the hospital, organizations to research, and ways to communicate with doctors, fresh in her mind.

I am an author and I was born with Tricuspid Atresia. Follow me as I dive into understanding my condition, which is an endeavor I had not anticipated embracing until some profound midlife crisis. Wait...have I had a midlife crisis...?

The medical, psychological, and psychological toll of my condition would never have been manageable without the support of those I love. I wanted to create a space where all felt welcome to share their stories and build a community to encourage each of us grow on our CHD journey.
Keep being your unbeatable self.
