[Verse 1]
Sarah walks into the clinic room
Dreams of motherhood starting to bloom
But truncus arteriosus lives within her chest
Repaired in childhood, now it's time to test
The cardiologist pulls up her chart
MFM specialist plays their part
"Before conception, we must convene
Map the risks that can't be seen"
[Chorus]
Moderate to high, the danger climbs
When truncus meets pregnancy times
ACHD and MFM unite
Counseling before that positive sight
Residual burden tells the tale
Will her repaired heart prevail?
[Verse 2]
Genetic counselor enters the scene
Twenty-two-q-eleven deletion on the screen
"If you carry this chromosomal change
Fifty percent risk in your exchange
Each baby has a coin-flip chance
To inherit this genetic stance"
The numbers echo through her mind
As specialists help her redefine
[Chorus]
Moderate to high, the danger climbs
When truncus meets pregnancy times
ACHD and MFM unite
Counseling before that positive sight
Residual burden tells the tale
Will her repaired heart prevail?
[Bridge]
Pre-conception planning holds the key
Team approach sets the strategy
Pulmonary pressures, valve function too
Every detail matters when dreams come true
[Chorus]
Moderate to high, the danger climbs
When truncus meets pregnancy times
ACHD and MFM unite
Counseling before that positive sight
Residual burden tells the tale
Will her repaired heart prevail?
[Outro]
Knowledge guides each careful choice
Giving hope a stronger voice
