Madelyn's parents found out of her diagnosis before she was even born. After her 20 week ultrasound, Mom (Terra) and Dad (Matt) found out their unborn daughter would be born with a condition called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. About 30 minutes after Madelyn was born she was transferred to the Stollery and spent a week at the NICU. Madelyn has since gone two successful surgeries, with a third planned for later this year.
