The father of a 4-year-old girl who has had multiple open heart surgeries decided to get a tattoo that matches his daughter s chest scar so she does not feel alone in having the scar.
The Backe family has been through a lot as their youngest child Everly goes through her congenital heart defect journey, but they are trying to keep family life as normal as possible.
The idea of a tattoo evolved from a mantra that Matt and Lauren came to adopt during the course of Everly's journey: strength comes in knowing you're not alone.
