Granddaughter Pesta

HLHS


There is little history at this point. Our daughter is expecting to deliver our granddaughter on or about June 16 of 2006. She was just diagnosed in utero with HLHS. My daughter and her husband live in San Diego, and Granddaughter Pesta will be born and treated at the Children?s Hospital there.

We understand this is a excellent facility. However, we do not know too much else and are in the process of educating ourselves. Joining this organization is one of our first steps in this process.

— Jim and Kathy, grandparents (Northville (metro Detroit), MI)
