I am proud to participate in the Bay Street Hockey Tournament in support of the Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD) Program at the Peter Munk Cardiac Centre (PMCC) at Toronto General Hospital.

One out of every hundred babies is born with a malformation of the heart involving the chambers, valves and blood vessels.  Almost all of them grow up to become adults thanks to medical and surgical advances, as well as expert care. But most still live with a chronic condition known as ACHD, which needs ongoing care.

A team of dedicated specialists at the PMCC provides special care for the ongoing survival and quality of life of ACHD patients. The team is able to diagnose complications and treat them swiftly with open heart surgery, as well as other interventional procedures and comprehensive care.

Thank you for supporting our fundraising efforts!
