Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Hi Everyone I wanted to pass this email on to you in case you have experienced this same heart proceedure. If you have, perhaps you can talk with this mom and share your experience with her. Kristy Amy wrote: I have a family here in KC whose son will have a Fontan Procedure done some time this year. The Fontan procedure is a palliative surgical procedure used in children with complex congenital heart defects. It involves diverting the venous blood from the right atrium to the pulmonary arteries without passing through the morphologic right ventricle. Mom is very interested in talking with any other families who have had this procedure done. If you know of someone who can help please have them email mom at: theknipps@... Thanks in advance for your help in supporting this family. Happy New Year to you and yours!
