Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for the Congenital Heart Walk. Raising funds for CHD research is critically important to all Heart Warriors and Heart Angels, and personally very meaningful to me. 


I am walking in memory of our Heart Angel, Michelle Elizabeth Duncan, who was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome and who we had to say goodbye to at a little over 24 weeks of my pregnancy.  

"So many words for the broken heart..." is a line from my favorite Backstreet Boys song (Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely). On the day that we had to say goodbye, it had an even deeper meaning as my husband played the song for me. Michelle's heart was physically broken. Our hearts were figuratively broken.




Even though we never got to know Michelle out of the womb, I want to raise money for this cause so that Heart Warriors everywhere get the chance for long meaningful lives.
