This is so true. Asking for help and accepting help are so hard to do sometimes. OK, most times. But over the years, I, too, have learned that people *want* to help.

Like your Hope for Hearts, our Regional Forum on Congenital Heart Disease would not have been possible without all of the volunteers — heart and “nonheart” families — who pitched in, doing whatever needed to be done to make the event a success.

Asking for and accepting help is not a sign of weakness. On the contrary, it’s a sign of strength, I think.

And for you Hope for Hearts benefit concert, I will do whatever I can from here to help it be successful! Count me in!

Take care, Sarah!
