An Interview with Emily: Her Heart Story
We hope you'll be encouraged by this interview with Emily, Bloom! Photographer and Designer, about her heart surgery years ago and how the Lord has been using that in her life.
Tell us a bit about your heart issue.
I was born with TAPVR (Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return). The pulmonary vein that should have taken oxygen from my lungs and sent it through my heart to the rest of my body was connected to the wrong side of my heart. Therefore, I could not oxygenate my body at all. Within a few minutes of my birth I started turning blue. I was quickly flown to Dallas Children’s Hospital where I had open heart surgery at barely a day old.
So you had heart surgery. You were a baby and won't remember it, but what have your parents told you about it?
I have heard the story so many times that it seems like I do remember it. So, what exactly did having surgery do? The surgery snipped the vein and reconnected it to the right side of the heart. The incision was patched with a portion …

J'essaie de lire la Bible quotidiennement, mais ce n'est pas toujours évident de se motiver! :(
ReplyDeleteLe site www.Bible1An.com m'aide, mais les différences de fuseaux horaires me mélangent un peu…
Et vous, les filles, lisez-vous la Bible quotidiennement? Utilisez-vous une ressource "lire la Bible en 1 an", ou préférez-vous lire à votre rhythme?
Hey Alex, I use this program for reading through the Bible in the year: four chapters in the old testament, one chapter in the new testament, every day. But- God has recently been altering my perspective as to how to read the Bible. I use the program as my outline, so I've got readings going in both old and new testament, but I don't hold to that like concrete. I once heard the Bible described as an ocean: You can skim over the surface, in a hurry just to get across. Or you can take your time, and delve below, and search for the pearls beneath, and find treasure. This quote quite sums it up!
