Sophia was born on born on January 24, 2006, with multiple, congenital heart defects. We knew ahead of time about her condition. She had her first surgery at around 1 week old, her second at 7 months, and her third at almost 3 years. As a result of that surgery, she received a pacemaker and is 100% dependent on it.
She is now doing great. Although she will have more surgery in the future, we stay optimistic and enjoy the gift we've been given.
