Friend's son born with open heart - Looking for donations
 

A close friend of mine had a baby boy (Dylan) 9 months ago and he was born with a major heart defect. He has since undergone two open heart surgeries and will have to have at least one more in the coming years which is very expensive and stressful. A few of my friends in Iowa are walking and raising money in his honor. If you can donate anything (even $25 helps) that would be really awesome. If you don't want to donate I ask that you keep this family in your prayers.

The link to donate is here and the min. is $25

Here are some links to his pictures. Despite what he's gone through he's a really cheerful guy

Bump for a good cause.

Bump for you Steve.

Aww what a beautiful little boy. This just breaks my heart. I made a small donation Steve and my thoughts are with your friends and their little one.

My thoughts and prayers will be with him.

I hope his operation would be successful. Don't worry, that cute child can survive it.

I think he means hole in his heart maybe?

My son, Dylan, was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome in utero. We were told that he wouldn't even make it to birth. With the advancements in medicine and the research into treating this defect, Dylan is 8 months old and doing well. Thanks for you support and donations in helping us raise money and awareness for the American Heart Association.

Yeah, hole and some issues. The defect is not correctable but some babies can be treated with a series of operations or a heart transplantation.

this thread broke my heart... i still believe that miracle do happen everyday... i hope i can do something to help the boy

poo little angel...he is so cute and seems to be a very smart kid...
