Levi is a young father and amateur triathlete from Brisbane. In his early twenties, Levi dropped out of care. Levi's hospital had been trying to get in touch with him as he needed a third surgery on his heart. Like when he was young, Levi's parents were there to help him through his third open-heart surgery. Levi is now 36 and a father to two beautiful children. Through parenthood, he has developed a new understanding of the support his parents gave him growing up as a heart kid.  Levi's story highlights the importance of check-ups and follow-up care, and celebrates the amazing support our networks provide in times of need. HEARTKIDSFrom The Heart is brought to you by HeartKids, the only national not-for-profit solely focused on supporting and advocating for people affected by congenital and childhood heart disease.
