He was excited about the new Cardio\/thoracic unit.\u00a0 I wondered how I could help. I had started a heart motif like the Nicondo scarf, reversible and made of decorative increases and decreases in a mostly solid fabric. I&#8217;d iterated a few swatches, but it needed a lot more work. Then I realized that publishing heart patterns on Valentine&#8217;s Day, to benefit a Cardia\/thoracic unit, made a triple pun!<\/p><p>On Valentine&#8217;s Day 2025, I&#8217;ll be publishing three hearty charity patterns. It&#8217;s taken 2 years, 20+ iterations of test swatches, advice from my internet designer friends, Corrina Ferguson the sweet but truthful technical editor and 14 test knitters. The knitters who buy the patterns will cover the approximate Ravelry and Paypal fees, but the rest of the pattern price is going to <a href=\"https:\/\/wgm.org\/project\/tenwek-cardiothoracic-fund\">Tenwek Hospital in Kenya.<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3218023 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3218023\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9c9230d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9c9230d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/glad-heart-the-charity-knitting-pattern-features-a-knit-in-heart-and-benefits-the-tenwek-hospital-cardio-thoracic-unit-2-2\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/PXL_20241219_155120156-1200-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-10229\" alt=\"the Glad Heart blanket with large teddy bear\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/PXL_20241219_155120156-1200-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/PXL_20241219_155120156-1200-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/PXL_20241219_155120156-1200.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-882a74d e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"882a74d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b78465d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b78465d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Tenwek Hospital's Thoracic Residency Program counters, \"brain drain\"<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a2934d1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a2934d1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>According to Google AI there are 20 Cardio\/thoracic surgeons in the whole of the country of Kenya.\u00a0<span style=\"text-align: var(--text-align); color: var( --e-global-color-primary ); font-size: 1rem;\">By the time a surgeon has finished his or her residency, they tend to stay in that same country to pay off debts, and keep up the connections their families have made in school and town.

This lead to his heart attack when I was in kindergarten.
