Dear Readers,
Welcome to CHD Connects Hearts.
I’m Momma C — mother, grandmother, and founder — and this mission began the day my grandson, Hunter, was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome.
During his first surgeries, isolated by COVID, I felt the full weight of helplessness.
I saw firsthand the gaps in support, the missing resources, and the loneliness families face in the CHD world.
Watching Hunter fight through his Fontan procedure gave me a new mission: build the community he — and every heart warrior — deserves.
CHD Connects Hearts is built from that hope, that fight, and that love.
It’s a place where no family, no child, no survivor ever feels alone again.
Together, we’re not just surviving.
We’re building a future where CHD families are seen, heard, empowered — and unstoppable. ❤️
Warmly,
Momma C (Christy Pace)
