Parents for Heart provides mutual support and education for parents of children who have congenital heart defects, hypertension or acquired heart problems. Some children are awaiting or have had surgery. For some, no corrective treatment is available or needed at this time. Our members have gone through experiences similar to yours and can offer their support and share their experiences.
