Devin's Story

Devin is a healthy kid—the quintessential young athlete. From marathons, to soccer to baseball, to football, he shined in every
sport. But when his mom heard about Eric Paredes' death, she followed her instinct to check Devin's heart. And it turned their
world upside down. The screening detected ASD, and after a battery of tests, from magnetic resonance to nuclear imaging, a symptomless
coronary artery anomaly (CAA)—the second leading cause of sudden death in young athletes, typically discovered during
autopsy. "We were shocked and scared as we shut down all activities in preparation for Devin's open heart surgery," said Erin. "All went well and he's back to normal, but we can't imagine his future and ours had we never done a routine heart screening."
