This hospital has saved my life three times. I was born in 1972 with a congenital heart defect. Children s Memorial performed an arterial switch heart surgery on me at one day old, and performed Mustard s Procedure on me when I was 13 months old. This was a newly discovered procedure to correct a defect that caused blue babies with congenital heart defects. 42 years later, they still had my records and doctors who specialized in adults with these defects. They transferred me to Northwestern Hospital to put a pacemaker in me. 4 or 5 years later I had another congestive heart failure and they installed a heart pump with which I am living today!
