Looking for Others Who Had a Heart Transplant at a Young Age

Saw an ad for this app and thought I’d give it a try. I’m interested in talking to people who had a heart transplant at a young age like myself. I was 16 when I had the surgery and I’m 24 now. I think it’s helpful to talk to people with the same situation.

I was born with HLHS and had a fontan installed when I was three days old. The fontan was able to help until I was 15 when it failed. I had a VAD for about 9 months and about a week before I got my new heart, I had a stroke caused by the Vad. Things have been looking good for me since then other than the frequent doctors appointments! I’ve spoken briefly to others with similar stories but thought this was a good way to speak with others 🤗
