Sean's Amazing Journey to Recovery

I flew into the Phoenix airport yesterday and as I was awaiting at the baggage carousel, I glanced up and saw an adorable baby on a large poster advertisement for the Phoenix Children's Hospital that said "they gave him a second chance at his terrible twos" and directed the viewer to "see Sean's story" at www.pchhandprints.org.

I was curious, so I checked it out. And his story is truly incredible! His heart was missing a valve, his esophagus was fused, and doctors did not think he would survive. But as you watch the film, you see how truly amazing his family and doctors were in ensuring he got the best possible care and enabling him to beat the odds. Sean definitely brought tears to my eyes, and I'd highly recommend watching his film.
