📊 What This Means for Children & Families

🫀 Heart defects do not go away with one surgery — most children need lifelong monitoring and care, including potential additional procedures, medicines, and specialist visits. CDC
🏥 Families often face incredible emotional and financial stress while doing everything they can to help their child thrive. www.heart.org
❤️ “For Leo. For Every Child.”
Every child deserves a chance at life — but not every family can afford it.
Many of you know the story of my son, Leo, who was born with a critical heart condition and underwent emergency heart surgery at only 20 hours old. Thanks to the incredible team at CHOC Children’s Hospital, Leo is here with us today.
But while I stood next to his bed in the ICU, I saw so many children fighting the same battle — and so many parents who simply did not have the financial means to give their child the treatment they urgently needed.
No parent should ever face losing their child because they cannot afford medical care.
That moment changed me forever.
