What happens when a Fontan patient needs a tune-up? What kinds of procedures might a Fontan patient need after living with a Fontan heart? What can we learn from someone who has experienced a Fontan revision?

Welcome to the first of four Saturday Success Story programs! Saturday Success Stories will be released each Saturday in Heart Month (February 2022) and this one features Jimmy Bachenheimer.

Jimmy Bachenheimer was born in August 1981 with a single ventricle heart. He was diagnosed with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Jimmy had the typical series of operations to palliate his condition.

Jimmy is also a dad. He has a 10-year-old daughter named Brooklyn who is in 5th grade.

Jimmy is a salesman. He works for Hillcrest Volkswagen in New Kensington, Pennsylvania.
