PALO ALTO, Calif. -- Valentine’s Day doesn’t begin and end on February 14 this year. Turns out it’s lasting through the weekend.On Sunday, February 15, from 2:30-5:00pm at the Lucie Stern Community Center in Palo Alto, over 50 kids and their families will join for food, games, crafts, and the sharing of some miraculous stories. It’s the 9th annual Congenital Heart Disease Awareness Day Party, hosted each year by Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford.
This party is not just a reunion for families with a common, heartfelt bond. It’s also a time of thanks for the many surgical and treatment miracles that have allowed these kids to live. The special guest list is comprised of patients who had congenital heart disease surgery in 2008 at Packard Children’s, and babies through teens will attend.
Join us for a few post-Valentine’s Day treats and to meet those for whom every day is a heart day.
