Hello! My name is Ashley. My brother (Brad White) and his wife (Brandi Simmons White) announced on Easter they were expecting! We soon found out it was a boy!! Everyone was so excited! At Brandi’s 20-week anatomy scan her OB had some concerns and sent her to a specialist. At that appointment, he was diagnosed with Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). HLHS is a birth defect that affects normal blood flow through the heart. As the baby develops during pregnancy, the left side of the heart does not form correctly. Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is one type of congenital heart defect. This defect will require for the baby to have a series of surgeries within the first year or two of his life.
Brandi has been in Houston at Texas Children's since September. She and Brayden will remain there until after his second heart surgery on Feb. 22nd. Brandi has not worked so she could remain with her son and Brad is driving back and forth on the weekends to ensure they are having some income.
The Fundraiser is to help with the cost of the surgeries, travel back and forth from Houston to Texarkana, food, and housing.
Any and all help is so appreciated and we just want our support system to know how much we love you guys and how thankful we are for y’all. Please keep Brad and Brandi in your prayers as they navigate this journey.
