Mikayla's journey began before she entered this world on May 14, 2003.  She was born with a heart defect, and needed a pacemaker.  Her first pacemaker lasted for 4 years.  In October 2007, she again went in for major surgery to have a hole in her heart repaired and also for a new pacemaker.  She did fine for 3 months, then, February 1, 2008 she entered Shands Hospital in Gainesville, FL to wait for a new heart.  In the meantime, Mikayla had an artificial heart, "The Berlin Heart".  A matching heart was available September 4, 2008 and she underwent heart transplant surgery. She came home on September 16th. On December 2nd, Mikayla started attending school. She is in 1st grade.
