My son Issac was bornn on Sept 4 07 soon after birth the hospital realized something was wrong so he was flown 200 miles away to anouther hospital and spent a week in the nicu and has been home for awhile now doing ok , i have done the typicall research on this condition, it consists of 4 heart defects and the cure/fix for this is 2 open heart surgries but from what i was told by the doctor's/surgens that this is fairly common and is 100% fixable over a long period of time about 10-15 yrs and are confident they can fix this condition. My questioon is has anyone had any personall experiance with this and known anyone with this condition? Any and all help will be apperciated.

Wow, I'm sorry to hear that, it is great to hear that the doctors can fix it. I hate to see children suffer. My heart goes out to you and your family. As for the condition, I have never heard of it, sorry I can't be of any help there.
