Weslee's Story

Born with half a heart 

Brave 4 year old Weslee was born with a congenital heart condition called hypoplastic left heart syndrome, meaning he was born with half a heart.  

During his 4 short years Weslee has had 18 procedures, spending countless hours at Sick Kids.  The time has come where Weslee needs a new heart. 

 

Why we are asking for contributions

Weslee's family has decided that it is best for his mother to be home with him, so they are working hard to make a single income stretch.  Weslee is a huge Mustang fan, and when he's healthy enough, loves to go with his dad to Mustang events around Ontario.  

We thought we'd raise some funds to help cover the cost of these road-trips.  Once you watch the video, you'll understand why…

 

Help Change Weslee's life

All proceeds will go directly to Weslee and his family to support them during this difficult time.  

Last year, Weslee spent 3 months in the hospital recovering from his heart repair surgery.  You can imagine the costs that came with the family having to spend time in Toronto to be at their young son's side.  

When the moment comes for Weslee to receive a new heart the family will rely on contributions to help see them through the financial costs that come from undergoing this intense procedure.     

We promise to keep the Heart Wishes for Weslee community updated during the course of this campaign.  

 

Spread the word - make a difference

Please contribute to Heart Wishes for Weslee.  

Even if you are unable to contribute with funds, spreading Weslee's story will allow for others to be touched by his story.
