Rogers is a remarkable toddler whose journey has touched the hearts of many. Born with Down syndrome, Rogers was diagnosed with a life-threatening heart defect at just four months old.
That's when the David Ortiz Children's Fund stepped in, becoming a beacon of hope for Rogers and his family. Immediately upon receiving the green light from our team of doctors at CEDIMAT, Rogers underwent life-saving surgery to repair a large hole in the heart tissue.
Today, Rogers is a picture of happiness. He's enjoying the same heart health as any other child his age, laughing, playing, and discovering the world around him with boundless energy and glee.
With your continued support, we hope to extend the gift of life and health to more families so that more hearts can beat strongly and joyfully!
