2026 Metro St. Louis Heart Walk
Theo's Heart Beat Heroes
Theo's Heartbeat Heroes | Walking With Heart
Theo’s journey began before he was even born, and since then he has shown the world what true strength looks like. Diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), he has already endured several open-heart surgeries, procedures, and challenges - yet he continues to meet each milestone with resilience, joy, and a fighting spirit that inspires everyone around him.
Today, Theo is an energetic, curious kid who refuses to let his single-ventricle heart define him. This year, Theo's Heartbeat Heroes is walking to honor how far he has come and to support the lifesaving work of the American Heart Association. Our team walks for Theo, for every child born with a congenital heart defect, and for the hope of a healthier future.
Thank you for joining us, supporting us, and walking alongside our little warrior. Every step fuels research, advances care, and brings more bright futures within reach.
