With congenital heart defects being the #1 birth defect around the globe, there are many people touched by this condition. At least 1% of the population is born with a heart defect. Many of them will be innocent murmurs that will close up on their own. But some people have more serious heart conditions.

In this special mini-series episode for Heart Month 2023, Anna asks her Listeners to identify some famous athletes who have been touched by CHDs. 

So many people think that if they have a heart defect, they can’t participate at an exceptional level in sports. That’s not true, my friends, and the following THREE people are an example of how people can still excel, despite having a heart defect. Do you know who these people are? See if you can guess!
