Heart Hero Story #2: Lilliana

TRIGGER WARNING: This story does talk about loss of a child.

On part two of this month's "Heart Hero Story" series I talk to Chanel who is the mother of a Heart Angel, Lilliana. Initially, Chanel's daughter was diagnosed prenatally with some heart defects as well as Heterotaxy Syndrome. After being born 5 weeks early, it was later discovered that Lilliana had more heart defects than what was told to Chanel prior to giving birth. But thanks to Chanel's constant research and relentless advocacy for her child, Lilliana was able to get treated at one of the best hospitals in the world for cardiac surgery which allowed Chanel and more of Lilliana's loved ones more time with her before becoming a Heart Angel a little over 2 years later.
