Jeffrey Romine is a CHD survivor, nurse, and patient advocate. Thirty years ago he was born with dextro-transposition of the great arteries,d-TGA, and was the first patient in his hometown of Wichita, Kansas to receive the arterial switch operation (ASO). Afterward, he had two more surgeries during childhood to repair pulmonary stenosis. He is a licensed practical nurse and is currently studying to become a registered nurse. Until recently, he was a patient care technician and cardiac monitor technician at his local hospital.
Jeffrey lives in Wichita with his wife Ashley and two heart-healthy children: Mason and Amelia. In this episode of "Heart to Heart with Anna," Jeffrey talks about why he is becoming a registered nurse, how he feels about the quality of life a person with d-TGA should have, some modifications that may need to be made, and what the future holds for him and his family.
