Bill Coon
Bill was born in 1989 with Hypoplastic Left Ventricle Syndrome, a congenital birth defect. In the final hours of Bill’s life, the phone rang, and Bill became the eighth infant heart transplant in the nation. Many years pass, and at age 20, Bill was rushed to the hospital where a team of doctors informed him that he was in both end-stage heart and kidney failure. Since returning home, Bill has become an avid spokesperson for organ donation. In 2017, Bill launched Keep Swimming Foundation. A nonprofit organization that aims to provide financial relief to the families of individuals facing long-term inpatient care.
