- Audrey is one of 15 in the nation selected by the American Heart Association to be a National Youth Ambassador for 2023-24! She has undergone 2 open hearts, multiple pulmonary valves/conduits, pulmonary stents and endless cardiac catheterizations! Audrey has been an advocate for the Heart Association since she was in elementary school! (see video below)
This year the Heart Association is celebrating 100 years and this kid is living proof of the advances made in cardiac medicine. Surgery for Tetralogy of Fallot was first tried only 50 years ago and the procedure for Audrey's defect only began in the 1990's! She has been the recipient of the advances in transcath valves-Melody Valve which has allowed her to put off her next open heart surgery for the last few years.
Her heart disease limits her in some aspects such as her desire to become a pilot but she can do almost anything and lives everyday to the fullest! She hopes to become a cardiologist and continue the advances in medicine.

God bless Audrey who sets her heart on helping others! Warm regards to her sister Gracie and their respective parents who have the big heart to adopt the twins regardless of their condition, this is truly the best on-going Love story !
You guys have given this young woman so many opportunities and she has rose above it all. Well done Audrey.
Thank you! This was all her! Crazy to think she is getting her college acceptances already!
Awww all grown up😭 I’m assuming Audrey and Gracie are about 16 now?
I wish you the best for you and Gracie and your respective families.❤❤❤
:) WOW! Go Audrey! THANKS SO MUCH for sharing, ALL the BEST and Cheers! :)
thank you!
So touched about her life story ❤🙏
Inspiring young lady... full of joy and positivity obviously doing wonders for her health... 👍💪
Thank you. She was so easy to raise. We are very proud of her!
Then congratulations to the parents also! “The home is the first and most effective place to learn the lessons of life: truth, honour, virtue, self-control, the value of education, honest work, and the purpose and privilege of life. Nothing can take the place of home in rearing and teaching children, and no worldly success can compensate for failure in the home.”
ALL the BEST!
I hope you have fun there Audrey

awesome
Thank you!
Wonder if Audrey's heart condition would disqualify her from flying a glider. More fun than a plane
Not a glider but a real plane. They kept asking us for more and we decided to give up for a license and just let her fly with an instructor when she wants. Just the reality.
