CHD Awareness Poem

Your help is needed
and that's not all.
We need awareness
for the little and small

We need your help
to spread the word...
of congenital heart defects
for little have heard!

This is a deadly defect,
affecting many that are born,
turning lives upside down...

Congenital heart defects,
known as CHD's
are the #1 birth defect,
but a hidden disease

Doses of medicine,
many times a day
for a little child,
that can't run or play
her little heart,
can't take the stress,
her little body
just needs to rest

A little baby
that struggles to eat,
with tiny blue lips
and hands and feet
A mother stands by
her baby's grave,
praying through research
others will be saved!
