This is the final Heart Dad Sunday mini-series episode for Heart Month, February 2023. Frank Jaworski, Anna Jaworski's husband, and Heart Dad to a single ventricle heart warrior is back as the Guest Host. In this episode he interviews Dan Rodenbaugh.

Dan is father to Caylee Rodenbaugh, who was born on June 26, 2009, at St. Luke’s hospital in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. Caylee is his fourth daughter, but the first one with a heart condition.

Dan Rodenbaugh is 52 years of age and he’s been happily married to Marie for 27 years. He was born with a heart defect and was treated at Children’s Mercy Hospital until he was 18 years old.

He had a heart murmur which led to the discovery of his heart condition. Regardless, he did sports, including football, although he tired easier than other athletes his age.

In this episode, Frank talks to Dan about growing up with a congenital heart defect, what it was like to find out that his daughter also had a congenital heart defect, and what advice he has for his daughters and others when they have a history of congenital heart defects in their families.
