Congenital Heart Defects (CHD) are the most common birth defect. 1 in 100 babies are born with a CHD. At least 50% of people born with a CHD will have to have at least one invasive surgery in their lifetime.
Tara-Leigh Cobble was born with a few major congenital heart defects (more info listed below). A team of cardiac specialists determined that she needed to undergo a series of heart surgeries to repair her aortic valve and replace part of her descending aorta. TLC had her first Open Heart Surgery on September 29, and her 2nd Open Heart Surgery just 9 weeks later on Dec 8. Both surgeries involved lengthy stays at The Heart Hospital Baylor Plano. Her family flew out to be with her during her surgeries and recoveries. The overall cost is in the range of nearly $1,000,000. Fortunately, TLC does have insurance, but it does not cover the entire cost of all three surgeries, nor the vast expenses associated with the surgeries, the preliminary testing, rehab/recovery, and follow-up testing. We're aiming to raise only 5% of the costs, hoping that will cover the bulk of what she will personally encounter.
If you know TLC, you know she believes every detail matters. So even if you can give $1 to help her with these expenses, it matters. And even if you're not led to give but are called to pray for her and her family during this time, it matters. Thank you for being a part of what God is doing in and through her life!
"The Lord is righteous in all His ways and kind in all His works." - Psalm 145:17
