James Everett was born September 13, 2007 with several heart defects that were not detected prenatally: Pulmonary Atresia (PA), Double-Inlet Left Ventricle (DILV), and Levo-Transposition of the Great Arteries (L-TGA).
For more information on these defects you can visit these links: https://health.google.com/health/ref/Pulmonary+atresia

He had his first open heart surgery, the Blalock-Taussig shunt, on September 25th when he was 12 days old. Just 10 days later on October 5, Everett had to be taken back into the OR to drain off the fluid that had accumulated around his heart that could not be diuresed with medication. In January '08 he had his Glenn procedure, and in March '09 he had his Fontan procedure. After these four open heart surgeries he is doing wonderfully!
