Paul Cardall

Last night, my heart mommy friend, Angela and I attended Paul Cardall's "Celebration of Life" concert. This was his first concert since he received a heart transplant 9.9.09. He had many guests performing with him and during his set there was a large screen that played inspirational clips. It was wonderful. Afterward, we were invited backstage. Angela knows Paul, but I have never met him. I guess some people have told him about Bridger and his journey here on earth. We only had a moment to talk, but it was amazing to see a 36 year old survivor of CHD. I know that when Bridger was here I needed to see people older than he was that were surpassing the longevity of their prognosis. Although Bridger journey was only 11 months and 4 days, I know that there are other parents out there who still need to see that it can be done. There child does have the possibility to defy the odds, to grow up and get married and have children of their own. Thank you Paul, for showing us that last night!
