Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS): Aiden’s Story

  • Jenny Rodgers went to a regular OB-GYN visit for her 20-week ultrasound expecting everything to be normal. Instead, the news she received was earth-shattering. Her baby had only half his heart -- a rare and life-threatening condition called hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Jenny and her husband Philip chose Texas Children’s Hospital to ensure the best possible care for their son. Aiden Rodgers was born at Texas Children’s Pavilion for Women and just four days later, he had the first surgery to help repair his half-formed heart and get him home.

    My granddaughter was just born with this. She goes in for Glenn surgery next month. As a grandfather I’m scared to death but can’t let my daughter see that. These last 2 months have been insane. We lived at the hospital for the first month after her first surgery. Ronald McDonald house saved us. But yea it’s scary my daughter and granddaughter live with me and Mom my wife. It’s nothing but feeds meds oxygen checks over and over all day and night. It’s a rough thing to go through. Glad your son is doing great. I hope my granddaughter will be just fine she’s my best friend.🙏🙏🙏
