I want to express my heartfelt thanks for taking a moment to visit my fundraising page.
This year, our family is walking in the Congenital Heart Walk to raise funds for CHD research and support—a cause that is deeply personal to our family.
When our child was diagnosed in utero with Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA), it marked the beginning of a challenging journey. Through open-heart surgery as a newborn and multiple procedures along the way, our little warrior has shown us what true strength looks like. Today, we are beyond blessed to see our child absolutely thriving—full of energy, laughter, and joy.
Our hearts are filled with profound gratitude for the incredible care teams across the globe who made this possible. We are forever thankful to the dedicated doctors back in India who provided critical care early on, and to the extraordinary team at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford (LCPH) for their world-class expertise and ongoing support. The skill and compassion of these medical teams truly saved our child's life.
Medical research and surgical advances made our journey possible, but there is still more work to be done for all the heart warriors out there. We would love your support as we walk to raise funds for life-saving heart research so other families can receive the same hope and healing we did.
