Here is another Heart Dad Sunday episode for Heart Month, February 2023. Like the other two episodes, this episode also features Heart Dad Frank Jaworski as the Guest Host. Today's Guest is Carl Wolford.

Carl Wolford was born with total anomalous pulmonary venous return or TAPVR and had surgery by Dr. Denton Cooley at 4 months of age in January 1958 at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston, Texas. Carl was Dr. Cooley’s second successful case of this heart defect and the first one is now Carl’s friend.

Carl participated in a lifetime of sports: baseball, tennis, golf, anything with a ball and Carl was there. He even tried snow skiing–during which time he became aware of a problem with high altitudes and thin air when a person has a congenital heart condition.

Carl’s biggest passion is pool. He tours mostly the southern United States in tournaments. One of his goals was to win a national championship, which happened 3 years ago in Las Vegas. His new goal is to add a state title or two to his resume. Carl has 3 children and 5 grandchildren. None have any signs of heart issues of any kind. Carl has done great ever since he had his surgery with Dr. Cooley until he entered his 50s. He is now 65 years young and his motto is “Life is short, play hard.”
