Ladies and gentlemen, we would like to introduce you to Brandon! This sweet little dude had a rocky start to life, and he worried his mama later in November of last year when he had his complete repair for Atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD). Despite Brandon’s trials, his mom still found the time to become a champion for breastfeeding while inpatient. She also contributes to the local heart community on a regular basis with her kind and caring input. We so enjoy this little family!
