~supporting our "Mr. Incredible"
In August of 2004 our Mr. Incredible was born. The day he was born was the happiest in
our lives. We have had a lot of ups and downs since that day, but my little guy has always
shown me there are many good things in this world. He has continued everyday since he
was born to inspire us, amaze us, and be our Mr. Incredible.
My Name is Mr. Incredible
aka Samuel Aragon Thor...
I am a survivor. I have a rare heart defect know as Hypoplastic Right Heart Syndrome
which caused Pulmonary Atresia. That means I was born with out a pulmonary valve. In
order for my heart to be able to pump blood into my body I have had 3 major open-heart
surgeries, and 14 other invasive heart surgeries. I am 5 years old. I am a tough little guy and
most people can't tell that I might be any different, unless they see my zipper. I have
continued to amaze those around me, especially my mom and dad who are grateful I have
done so well. I have an exorbitant amount of energy, although doctors told my parents I
would always be tired and lag behind other children my age. On Saturday September 19,
2009. I am helping the American Heart Association fight the nation's leading causes of death
by participating in my 5th Heart Walk. Please become a sponsor so that I may reach my
goal of $2000. Every little bit helps even those only able to give $1.

| Event Info |
The Heart Walk (the American Heart
Association’s premier national walking
event) is the best way to get involved in the
American Heart Association’s fight against
heart disease and stroke. Walking is great
exercise and it’s fun too! The 18th Annual
San Diego Heart Walk will draw over
10,000 walkers to September 19, 2009.
This year we hope to raise $1.5 million to
support cardiovascular and stroke research
and education programs. Companies and
families participate by forming teams of
walkers, who obtain pledges on behalf of
the American Heart Association. It is a great
opportunity that combines a sense of fun,
spirited competition, and physical fitness for
all ages.
