  8. Hi!:0)
    My name is Tina & I'm the lucky heart momma to Nevaeh. She's 2 & has Tetralogy of Fallot w/pulmonary atresia, MAPCA's, & PFO(ASD). She's had 3 open hearts & just had her 6th heart cath in the middle of January. In addition to all of the heart surgeries, she also had a PEG(G-)tube placed, but was able to have that removed during the last cath.
    Happy CHD week to all heart families around the world!

  9. Hi! I'm Hollie. Mom to sweet-heart Elaina who just turned one. She was born with Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia, VSD and DiGeorge (22q11) Syndrome. She's had 3 heart surgeries, 3 heart caths, and just had a nissen and g-tube placed. She's had a tough year and has only been home for about 7 weeks if you add all the time together.

I suffered Hepatitis B for 11 years, I was very weak with pains all over my body my stomach was swollen and I could hardly eat. And one day my brother came with a herbal medicine from doctor Imoloa and asked me to drink and I drank hence there was no hope, and behold after 2 week of taking the medicine, I started feeling relief, my swollen stomach started shrinking down and the pains was gone.
