Finn Paul Cavanaugh was Born on November 7th, 2022 with a congenital heart condition called Tetralogy Of Fallot,a heart defect made up of four different heart problems: ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta, pulmonary stenosis and right ventricular hypertrophy. These defects affect normal blood flow through the heart resulting in a lack of oxygen. Finn underwent open heart surgury at 3 months old where a team of surgeons at Massachusettes General Hospital completed a full repair. It was a long and scarey rode and Finn will be followed by cardiology for the rest of his life but we are happy to report that he is thriving and his heart never holds him back! Thanks to the research and advances made in surgury Finn is a strong, brave, sweet boy, who loves his siblings and dogs, and is always smiling! He is our hero!
