More Than Just A Broken Heart – A Digital Story by Kristyn

Name: Kristyn
In this honest and heartfelt video, Kristyn shares what it’s really like when the hospital stay ends but the challenges keep coming. What should have been a joyful first day of kindergarten brought back memories of her son’s heart transplant and opened her eyes to the invisible struggles that followed. From learning about executive functioning to navigating therapy and school support, Kristyn walks us through how CHD impacts far more than just the heart. It’s a story about strength, advocacy, and discovering the things no one tells you to prepare for.

Digital Storytelling

A digital story is a short movie that blends a storyteller’s voice, carefully curated images, and music into a finished digital video between three and five minutes long.

You can learn more about digital storytelling on Kristy Wolfe Stories website.
