Welcome to Evelyn’s Heart Journey

Hi everyone,

​We wanted to create a dedicated space where we can keep all of Evelyn’s heart journey and medical updates in one place. While we will continue to post on Facebook, we know that posts can get buried in the feed or are hard to find later- please join our 500+ followers to show your support: Hearts for Evelyn

​This blog will serve as a home base for our family’s journey. We will be cross-posting our updates here so you can easily look back on our story, catch up if you’ve missed anything, and find specific details about her progress.

​Fundraising with COTA

This site is also the official home for our COTA fundraising efforts. We have partnered with COTA (Children’s Organ Transplant Association) to ensure that donations to COTA for Evelyn’s Heart are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law and managed correctly for transplant-related expenses.

You can find the donation links and upcoming fundraising event details right here on this site –

​With love,

Kelly, Ross, Evelyn, and little brother Raylan
