Following Joshua's birth, we had a crash course in what Tricuspid Atresia was about and were then introduced to the steps that would follow to treat his condition. This site is dedicated to helping educate those who have loved ones that have been born with this heart condition. Ultimately, we would like to provide comfort and hope as you begin the journey to bringing your affected love one a quality life.
-
When we first had Tricuspid Atresia explained to us it was done by the doctors that would draw hard to understand illustrations on scrap paper or napkins.
-
Our plan with this web site is to point you to easy to understand explanations of what Tricuspid Atresia is and what can be done to treat the condition. The links below are currently our best recommendations.
-
We also recommend the publication "AFTER THE FONTAN How Fontan Patients Fare In The Long Term" that goes into much more detail than we are capable of on this site (www.fontanoperation.com)
-
The truth is that the treatment for Tricuspid Atresia is not a quick one, but surgical procedures to repair the condition are constantly improving.
-
There is hope and our son is living proof as he is living a wonderful and healthy life.
