True Lives Star Tom Arnold uses star power to help kids with heart disease.

True Lives Star Tom Arnold uses star power to help kids with heart disease.

It appears that Tom Arnold is in a different place in his life. Being the star of a film doesn’t impress him as much as making a child with heart disease smile. His wild and crazy personality may have made him famous, but his philanthropic efforts just might make him #iconic. In addition to his comedy and acting credits, Tom Arnold’s name is buzzing in the community because of his support of “Cam…

Today is the first day of CHD awareness week. 13 years ago today, Charlotte went in to surgery to fix her broken heart. 1 in 100 babies are born with a congenital heart defect. More children die from CHD's than all childhood cancers combined and yet the research monies don't even come close to being equal. ❤️❤️❤️ #CHD #chdawareness #chdwarrior #campdelcorazon #stollerykids #littlemiracles

Today is Tuesday, May 26th, 2015, and it's 1:03AM in #Arizona Nine years ago today, I went to #campdelcorazon for the first time in my life. I remember my going to #PhoenixChildrensHospital for a sixth month check-up that Spring, and a nurse was telling me about a place that was new. I didn't fully understand everything, but I soon would. I would soon make new friends, who also had #congenitalheartdefects. I soon would go on an airplane, without my Mom and Dad. I would soon sleep in a cabin near Malibu, #California with #strangers who would sin become friends. I would soon meet other people, who understand what it's like to be #misunderstood during gym class, for sitting out. #chdprobs I would soon discover the art of dancing, and even if you don't know the song, #dance anyway! I would soon discover that I'm not the only person who takes daily medication that isn't for a cold. I would soon discover that climbing a rock wall looks hard from the bottom, but if you keep going, you'll succeed, and reach the top. #truth #writingrocks 😉 You know what? That's life. Giving up only blinds you from seeing what lies ahead, so #justkeepswimming 💙🌍🐬 The Lord created me, with a heart that isn't 'normal' to most people, but I wouldn't change it in a #heartbeat 😉 Dear #campdelcorazon, Thank you, for nine years ago, teaching me that: I'm not alone. Thank you, for providing friends who understand. Thank you, for all the memories my #heart can hold for years to come. I ❤️ you, Camp Del Corazon, and I'll see you on FRIDAY!!! 😁 -Kathryn Eads- #LongQT #1in100 #heartpatient #throwback #childofTheOneTrueKing #antenolol #haha #punny #hearthumor #excited #workinprogress #heartdefects #brokenyetloved #smile 😊😉❤️💙🔆👑

'One journey, must begin with single step, and to reach the top, you must first start from the ground. There will be times when you feel as if giving up is a better option, but if you do that, how will you ever know what the end result looks like from the mountaintop?'- #deepthoughts #kathryneads In this #Instagram picture, you see two main things: 1. My #campdelcorazon name tag from 2009 2. A human on top of a pole on a rope course on #CatalinaIsland To be HONEST, I did not want to go up on that pole. I did NOT want to climb up the metal steps. I did not at all want to stand, or even kneel at the top of the pole. WHY? I was afraid... I was afraid of falling off. I was afraid to embarrass myself in-front of all my Camp friends. I was afraid they would laugh at me if I messed up. I was afraid that they would pay more attention to how ugly I looked in my outfit, above anything else. Looking back now, I realize that day was a whole lot like my life. In life, I often make the mistake of thinking, 'Oh, well, if I look 'perfect' on the outside, everyone will like me,' or 'Nobody likes me for me, so I'll just make some changes to look like every woman in Hollywood, and I'll be ' #beautiful' #NOTETOSELF: #KATHRYN! You are you, and sometimes, people shove lies into your head, but don't you ever forget: YOU are a #childofTheOneTrueKing! It's okay not to be okay, and it's okay to have a bad day! My name might say Kathryn Eads on a name tag, and I do make mistakes, and I am not perfect, but you wanna know why I #smile everyday, even in the darkest moments? 'I have said these things to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world'-Jesus' words spoken to His Followers in John 16:33 💚💌 Life isn't perfect, but I give my ❤️ to The One Who is: Jesus, because apart from Him, there is no life worth living #IAmHis 💚 I'm a #workinprogress, The Lord isn't finished with me yet, and even in the darkest of the dark, I will choose to keep going🔆 #creativewriting #originalthoughts #expectforJesus #HeIsNumberOne #campdelcorazon #LongQT #heartpatient #1in100 #throwback

camp del corazon

i'm so glad to have made such a close bond with my camp cabin girls and counselors. it was my cabin's last year of camp last summer because, we will be 18, but it was the best year ever. they are the most amazing people i've ever met. camp is the one time i feel normal. only 5 days out of the year. but it's the best 5 days of my life. we may all have different heart conditions, but, we're all similar because it's something we all struggle with. it brings us together. no one back home knows what it's like to deal with a heart condition every day of their life. you can't do everything you want. our lives are based on restrictions and it sucks. people may say they understand, but they truly don't. only the people at camp truly do, because, we all are going living with a heart condition. i am so thankful to have been able to go to this camp every year, and make friendships and strong bonds with these people. no matter what, i know that they will always be there for me because we all have that special bond that i could never have with anyone else.
