Every year, the Le Bonheur Heart Institute has a Heart Reunion. Hundreds of kids come back to visit doctors, nurses and other families who had heart surgery, too. As a family, we love seeing our doctors, nurses and other heart friends. As a mentor to other heart parents, it is so nice to see these kiddos up running around after seeing them and their families enduring such vulnerable circumstances. The staff does such a great job planning activities, yummy food and a fun day all around!
Miss Jessica - our awesome cardiac nurse! We just love her to pieces. She is so great at what she does, and she totally gets all the kids' symptoms because she is a heart patient herself!
Dr. Joshi - he takes such good care of our girl!
Three of our favorite nurses who are no longer at Le Bonheur :( Julie and Laura moved away, and Miss Linda retired. So happy they came back for the reunion!
Dr. Wetzel, our rhythm doctor - we love him, but are thankful we don't see him anymore. Madeline's WPW has not returned since Dr. Wetzel ablated it 2 1/2 years ago.
MIss Alicia - oh, we go way back! She was Dr. Joel's nurse, then moved into surgery coordinating and Cardiac Kids Camp director! We LOVE her!!!!
Miss Ann, Miss Jessica and Miss Renee -- Ann and Renee were Madeline's nurses when Dr. Becker was her doctor - between Dr. Joel and Dr. Joshi.
Sweet Jessica Joshi -- she is Dr. Joshi's daughter. Jessica comes to camp every year and has been such a blessing to us! She has taken Madeline under her wing and watched over her so well!
Le Bonheur is a special place full of so many special people!
