Biography

Aidan was born at Yale New Haven, he had a perfect birth, we knew
about his illness and team was ready for him. At 4 days old he had his first
operation and did well. At 3 1/2 months he had his 2nd and 3rd operations, then
at 8 months his 4th open heart operation, and then what we thought was his last
one in Sept. 2009. The last operation did not go well and Aidan suffered a
stroke, he was blind and like a 4 month old. After 2 weeks his sight came back
and soon after he started walking and talking again! We moved to Alabama for my
father's job once Aidan was well.

Easter of 2010 Aidan started to have lung issue's and this continued until July
when we found out he had Plastic Bronchitis. This almost killed Aidan twice
while we were at the Children's Hospital in Birmingham. They med jet Aidan to
Boston.

Sept. 11th 2010 Aidan arrived in Boston, after 5 weeks they thought it would be
best for Aidan to have a heart transplant. We have been in the hospital in
Boston now for over 6 months waiting for a heart... Thank you for taking the
time to think of Aidan.
Sincerely, Samantha
