Welcome to our Caring Bridge website dedicated to our sweet son, Weston.
Weston Kayne Pangborn was born on 7/7/21, arriving into this world early and loudly and we would have it no other way. At 6 lbs 8 oz and 18.25" long - he immediately stole our hearts. From the moment we found out we were pregnant with Weston, our lives changed and our hearts immediately grew. He has been a blessing to us more than we could ever imagine.
Our sweet boy was diagnosed with a Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) at our 21-week ultrasound appointment. From that point on, our journey as "Heart Parents" to our "Warrior" began. While the pregnancy itself was anything but easy, we find ourselves thanking God each day for blessing us and allowing us to be his parents.
Weston was officially diagnosed with a "Single Ventricle Heart Defect" - a variant of "Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome". Along with his underlying condition, some of the vessels going to his heart are also variants or differ from normal anatomy, making his case a bit more complex. We feel we were blessed and are extremely thankful to be placed in the hands of the medical staff at Children's Hospital Wisconsin. We will use this page to update our continued story and journey with Weston.
