When we received Archer’s diagnosis at just 3.5 months of age, our world came crashing down. Never did we think our baby boy would have such a serious condition that would affect the rest of his life. Archer had to have an urgent valvuloplasty in order to survive, and will need more interventions throughout his life, including open heart surgery.

The sight of our baby post operation was a sight we will never forget, with tubes and lines attached to his body and his skin tinted reddish pink from the blood transfusion. It was both excruciatingly painful and overwhelmingly relieving to see him pull through the procedure.

We are so incredibly grateful at how far he’s come and how much he has progressed. He would not have had such a positive outcome had it not been for all the research and medical advancements that have been developed in the world of CHD.

So, in honor of our heart warrior Archer, we continue to make donations to The Children’s Heart Foundation to support CHD research so that other babies and children affected by CHD can have a chance at life, higher survival rates into adulthood and better outcomes & quality of life. We hope you will join us in supporting this meaningful cause that is near and dear to our hearts.
