A Mother’s Strength, A Community’s Love: Supporting The Schofield Family And Harland This Mother’s Day
By Ryn Gargulinski, Staff Reporter
While many newly married couples with a newborn may be counting the minutes until they can bring baby home, Ariana and Brandon Schofield were counting the days until their baby’s first open-heart surgery.
Born in October 2024 with a heart condition, Harland Schofield was just 8 days old when he underwent the first of three surgeries needed to repair and strengthen his heart. Known as Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome, or HLHS, the condition is a severe congenital heart defect where the left side of the heart is underdeveloped. The first surgery lasted more than 10 hours.
The second surgery, performed on April 15, lasted around nine hours. It also included a tissue donation of two pulmonary patches from a generous donor family. The third surgery will be scheduled sometime before the age of 5. Harland’s first two surgeries were a success, which is not a surprise based on the amount of love, care, knowledge and support surrounding him. Harland’s medical team gets a lot of the credit, of course, especially his team at Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital in St. Petersburg.
