‘They Did The Best For Me And Denver’: Special Reunion For Mom Who Had Historic Heart Surgery While Pregnant In NJ

Good News Notes:

“It was a special kind of reunion at Virtua Health and Wellness Center in Cherry Hill on Thursday for a mom-to-be who needed a first-of-its-kind heart surgery while pregnant. The surgery was a success and on Thursday, she introduced the baby who’s just over a month old now.”

“Tritten, who’s from Brazil, had her baby named Denver on Oct. 1. It was a delivery that almost didn’t happen because Tritten had a heart valved that was failing.”

“Her mitral valve that had been replaced once wasn’t working. To replace it again, instead of doing the procedure through the groin where there was scar tissue, surgeons had to go through her ribs.”
