This is the second of four special 'Heart Dad Sunday' episodes guest hosted by Frank Jaworski. Frank is Anna Jaworski's husband and together they have two children. Their youngest child was born with a single ventricle heart. Frank is also an advanced practice nurse. He is a nurse anesthetist in Temple, Texas.
In this episode, Frank revisits living with HLHS with an old friend. Rob Springham is a recently retired UPS driver. He and his wife, Linda, are parents to two sons. Michael will soon be a 25-year-old hypoplastic left heart syndrome (or HLHS) Heart Warrior. Because of his congenital heart defect (or CHD), Michael has cognitive disabilities along with other health issues. As a child, Michael needed a feeding tube for 2 years, eye surgery, and foot surgery. For Michael, the biggest challenge he has on a daily basis is the cognitive challenge he battles.
