"We just heard about this
other kid who's fifteen, a year older than her. He lives in Newport
beach. He's got hypoplastic left heart, and he's the only one who
has survived to be that old. And when he found out about Jeni he
was just so excited that there was somebody else that had survived.
"When they were doing hypoplastic left hearts in the beginning
it was unusual to live. She was only like the third, or something,
in the world. They told me when they were going to do the surgery
that there was zero chance of her surviving.
"You do what you have to do. People sometimes used to say 'How
do you do it?' or 'How would you change anything?' There's nothing
I would change any different. God has enriched our lives since she's
been born. I mean, we wouldn't have it any other way. }}}
