I Will Cherish This Amazing Picture The Rest Of My Life

By Brandy Gregware • June 2, 2016

My dad has had two open heart surgeries, 18 stents, a pacemaker, deflator, artery disease, diabetic, massive stroke, too many to count mini heart attacks and has 10% heart function. He has been battling this for 12 years now. Kolbie had his first open heart surgery when he was 4 months old. He was born with a heart defect, pulmonary vein stenosos, pulmonary hypertension, premature lung disease, kidney disease and Down Syndrome. He is 10 months old and has spent 7 of those months in the hospital.

This past year has been extremely hard for our family because both have been in and out of the hospital and us not knowing if they would make it home. My dad just sits and holds kolbie for hours and they chat about their matching zippers! You can definitely see the love and bond these two miracle fighters have in this picture!

There is so much hate and violence in the world yet you have two people fighting to be here each day!! I will cherish this amazing picture the rest of my life!
