Fontan With a Future
My life, like the lives of so many people living with congenital heart defects, is a medical miracle. For decades, Fontan and single ventricle patients were consigned to permanent sickness and disability. But today, thanks to advances in medicine and surgery, patients like me can not only enjoy life, but hope for the future! This podcast is created by a person with congenital heart defects for the CHD community and anyone interested in stories of medicine, perseverance, and hope. Join me, Taylor, as I share about life with a single ventricle, my journey through medical training, and important information all heart warriors should know.
