Teanna's Heart Surgery

Teanna is 21 and about to undergo her second open heart surgery, along with a pacemaker change. Without the pacemaker, Teanna’s heart wouldn’t be able to beat on its own.

She was born with Pulmonary Stenosis, a heart defect that affects the pulmonary valves within her heart. Those valves allow proper blood flow to go about the heart.

She's been a valued member of The Spa and Sauna Co. Team for nearly 2 years. She will be out of work for 13 weeks to recover from her surgery, scheduled for late August.

She has had several surgeries, aside from open heart surgery, over the years, involving heart catheters. These are routine surgery she gets every 4 years to prevent her pulmonary heart valves from closing.

She and her family will have to travel from Reno to Las Vegas to have the specialized doctor, who has cared for her throughout her entire life, perform the surgery.

During her last surgery, in 2020, her doctor discovered the leak in her heart.

The Spa and Sauna Co. is sponsoring this fund to help Teanna and her boyfriend, Michael, pay for their rent and medical expenses, while she can't work.

She and her boyfriend will also have to move during this time, as their lease expires before Teanna can return to work.
