Meet 4-year-old Jathaniel: bike rider, courageous kid, loyal younger brother. Jathaniel was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome; simply put, he has half of a heart. Now with social distancing and the fear of catching COVID-19, waiting for his transplant is more complicated and scary.
Jathaniel’s parents, with their older son, left the Rio Grande Valley to go to Texas Children’s Hospital during his mom’s pregnancy. They stayed at RMH Houston for 1½ years until Jathaniel was healthy enough to go home. They came back seven months ago as they wait for a donor heart.
