Diaries of a Heart Warrior
I'm Amy Erhart, the host of Diaries of a Heart Warrior; born with a Congenital Heart Defect (Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome-HLHS). I'm creating this podcast to bring you stories told by individuals living with a Congenital Heart Defect. Episodes will also include the parent(s) point of view on how it felt to receive the diagnosis of their child; what they wish they knew and what life looks like now. Let's take a journey and explore the lives of Heart Warriors as the stories are told from their perspective.
Diaries of a Heart Warrior
Texas's Story- greater arteries, tricuspid atresia, pulmonary atresia, ASD/VSD, dexa cardia (HRHS)
Today's Texas tells us his story about living with CHD. There are so many things about this episode that I enjoy, but I particularly love that we touch on falling out of care when we turn 18. It is so important for us to be able to live life to the fullest and in most cases because 'nothing is wrong' we feel we don't need to see a cardiologist anymore, but that simply isn't true. I hope you enjoy listening to his story today.
