We are hosting a fundraiser because we want to help Dr. Emani, Kyle's Cardiac Surgeon, continue to develop inovative techniques to repair and replace valves, aortas, and entire hearts. We have been extremely fortunate to have received on-going cardiac surgery and follow up care for Kyle since Julie was pregnant. Kyle was born with Tetrology of Fallot, and if it was not for cardiologists, like Dr. Marx, and surgeons like Dr. Meyer, and most recently, Dr. Emani, then Kyle would not be able to lead as vibrant a life as he is today.

In case, you wanted more information about Children's Hospital, Boston, consider the following:

• The hospital's Cardiac Surgery department is recognized as the #1 Cardiac Center for Children in the United States.
• Families travel from all over the United States and world to receive cardiac surgery.
• Researchers regularly make amazing discoveries that change children's lives.
• Boston Children's welcomes kids whose families can't afford health care—more than any other hospital in Massachusetts.
• Community programs make a point of reaching out to help low-income and at-risk kids.

The hospital doesn't just stop there. Boston Children's truly understands the importance of training the next generation of top pediatricians and nurses, so they can continue to provide the best, most innovative care possible to kids.
