More than two decades after her own complex congenital heart journey, Mackenzie Lampe was shocked to learn her baby, Jeremiah, had a similar heart condition. "The last thing I wanted was for someone I loved so much to go through what I went through," the new mom said. But Lampe also knew exactly who she wanted to take care of Jeremiah: the same team who took care of her. So she asked Mott pediatric heart surgeon Dr. Richard Ohye - who was on Lampe's surgical team in 1998 - if he'd fix her son's heart, too. “Here’s a mom I had the privilege of taking care of more than 25 years ago asking me to now take care of her son. I was honored to do so," Ohye said. Kenzie and Jeremiah's Mother's Day story: michmed.org/JYZYd #MothersDay
