One in 100 children are born with a congenital heart defect. In many cases, this will drastically affect their lives. And yet, there's still very little understanding of how these defects affect life quality, and even fewer specialists to follow them as they mature into adults. In this community, we'll discuss CHD, and share links on research to try and fill some of these gaps.

: "Hi all, back at it with a new article I wrote based on what's going on in our own home. We have 4 kids ages 11, 10, 8, and 5. My CHDer is our oldest, and she inevitably ends up getting more attention than our other kids, which can be hard at times on them. So I did a deep dive on the topic."
