When Hope's first breaths were intertwined with the whispers of uncertainty, my world changed. As a heart mom, each Mother's Day is not just a celebration but a milestone, reflecting the grit and grace it takes to raise a child with a congenital heart defect. Join me, Anna Jaworski, in an episode where we explore the deep emotional landscapes of mothers like me. We'll traverse the highs of motherhood, the lows of fear, and the battles that come with CHD, all through the lens of Mother's Day. Discover how stories of resilience echo through our community, offering wisdom and celebrating the spirit of heart moms everywhere.

This episode isn't just about my journey; it's a chorus of voices from the heart mom community, sharing their own powerful narratives. Together, we recognize the role of pediatric cardiologists and the medical community in bolstering our strength, and we honor the courage required to let our children forge their own paths. Hear from fellow heart moms as they speak candidly about their experiences—moments of profound loss and the critical importance of support systems. It's an ode to the unwavering courage of families facing CHD and a beacon of hope for those who will join our ranks. Celebrate Mother's Day with us, and feel the solidarity of heart moms united by love and resilience.
