At age 12, when most children are healthy and
full of energy, Jamie was fatigued and experiencing chest pain. She was taken to a
local hospital and immediately referred to the Children’s Heart Group at Penn State
Children’s Hospital. There, pediatric cardiologists discovered a virus had ravaged
her heart muscle. She needed a heart transplant. Fortunately for Jamie, Penn State
Children’s Hospital has the region’s most advanced pediatric intensive care unit
and is staffed with a full complement of pediatric cardiac specialists who found her a new
heart and saved her life.
Today, Jamie is a nurse in our pediatric intensive care unit giving back the world
class care she received as a child. She’s also married and planning a family of her
own. For more information, call us toll free at 1-866-CHG-CARE or visit our website at www.childrensheartgroup.com
