Team Lola This wonderful extended family of mine was born at the worst time of my life. In 2013, I was told that my congenital heart defect (Ebstein Anomaly) had taken a toll on my heart and that surgery was not only recommended, but urgent and required. My parents, granting my wish, supported me in my decision not to keep her anomaly a secret. They let me tell my story as best I knew how in order to educate others, while rallying support for my journey.

My Facebook page became the meeting place for me and my crew, my team, the thousands that offered prayers, good vibes, and gave me motivation to keep going. Thank you for being here. Today, I share more than just my heart condition, because I AM more than just my heart condition, as are many others who are born with congenital heart defects such as mine. Hope you stick around, because I sure have plans to be around for a long, long time.  For more on Team Lola, CHD resources and diagnosis feel free to visit Team Lola on the web at: www.teamlolaonline.com.
