So does your gift. 

Meet Jameson. An optimist. While snorkeling on vacation in the Keys, a shark attacked him. He was airlifted to Nicklaus Children's, where he underwent emergency surgery to amputate the leg below the knee. His spirit is unbreakable, though. He was recently fitted for a prosthetic and is back playing baseball again!

Meet Jack. A survivor. Facing a devastating diagnosis for their unborn son Jack, Kimberly and Mike found answers and comfort at Nicklaus Children’s Heart Institute. Thanks to the specialized care from the Prenatal Heart Program and Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery, experts developed a care plan for the expectant parents for the remainder of the pregnancy. As a newborn, Jack underwent open-heart surgery at the Heart Institute.

Meet Lavondre. A fighter. At three weeks old, baby Lavondre was diagnosed with ventricular septal defect (VSD), which means he had a hole in the wall that separates the right and left lower chambers of the heart. He underwent lifesaving surgery at Nicklaus Children's. Today, he is healthy, thriving toddler!
