A conversation with Justin and Ashley K. George

Resilience is a muscle. The challenges don’t get easier, we just get stronger at handling them.
A couple who know this from experience are Justin and Ashley K. George.
When their son Elliot was diagnosed with a heart defect, it took everything for them to stay strong amidst the crisis, counting the support they received from family, medical professionals and co-workers as essential.
——
We spoke about Elliot’s story, the issues of navigating employment during a difficult time, the importance of community and of family, recommendations for policymakers and physicians, and Ashley’s recently published children’s book A Heart Warrior Blooms.
