 After Finn was born, he needed multiple surgeries and procedures just so he could survive. He has had 17 procedures, including two open-heart surgeries. To be perfectly honest, I can't see Finn even getting past birth without the American Heart Association. Finn's thriving today because of people like you who give monthly to the American Heart Association. Monthly support that helps fund the kind of research, medical breakthroughs, and specialized care that saved Finn's life.
