He was born with a Congenital Heart Defect called Hypoplastic Right Heart Syndrome. This means that Cam was born with only half of his heart. Cam had his first heart surgery at only 1 week old and his first open heart surgery at 7 months old! After his 3rd heart surgery at the age of 4, his energy and spirit came back! His “magic zipper” that hides behind his shirt tells his amazing and brave story. Cam has a true love for sports and was previously told that playing was an absolute NO! After some determination, Cam’s dream was granted, and he is now on his school’s football tackle team! He is also a rock star in the 6th grade. Akron Children’s helped give Cam a glimpse at his dream and he kept up his fight to continue to LIVE!
