Zoe Lihn

In December of 2009, Stacey earned her title as “heart mom” when her unborn daughter was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome at 18 weeks gestation. Since birth, Zoe’s undergone three open heart surgeries (the Norwood, hemi-Fontan and Fontan) and is living well in Phoenix, Arizona with her mom, dad (Caleb) and big sister (Emerson).

Zoe continues to inspire her mom, who advocates on a wide-scale for improved outcomes in the field of pediatric cardiac medicine. While Zoe’s journey with her congenital heart defect has been challenging (which is always an understatement), her strength and courage remain a testament to our CHD communities’ resiliency and power. Together, we can make a positive impact for our children’s future.
