For its 40th anniversary, the En Coeur Foundation wants to create a space dedicated to the different experiences of families of children with a heart disease. We believe that sharing these stories has the power to comfort and connect people. This space is also designed to pay tribute to our little warriors, our amazing parents and our wonderful team.
It’s a place where everyone can tell their stories and read those of others.
We invite you to read, comment and share your own stories.
We’d love to hear from you.
Thank you so much for taking part!
