Resources for Families

This page is inspired by the questions asked by families I work with.

My Story

The photo above is my mom holding brand new me. When I was born with congenital heart disease, my mom didn't have the resources or connections to know what to do. It is in honour of her and all the parents out there I work with that this page will hopefully reach.
