    How do you describe your heart condition to people? #CongenitalHeartDefectDisease

    Sometimes when you tell people who have no idea about your heart condition you get creative about ways to easily explain complex heart problems. I was born with Transposition Of the Great Arteries with a Mustard Correction still in place. So basically I tell people my heart works backwards or pumps my blood opposite then normal. It’s the easiest way to explain it to people a they kinda get what my heart condition is. So how do you explain you heart condition to people?
