This is the final Heart Dad Sunday episode for Heart Month, February 2022 and it features a surprise -- instead of Frank Jaworski being the Guest Host, he is the Guest and his Heart Warrior son Alexander is the Guest Host.



Frank Jaworski is married to Anna Jaworski. Together they had two sons – Joey and Alex Jaworski. Frank Jaworski is a certified registered nurse anesthetist or CRNA. He has worked a number of jobs over the years and we’ll talk more about that in a little bit. He also serves as the President of Hearts Unite the Globe: A Nonprofit Organization for the Congenital Heart Defect Community – a nonprofit organization founded by Frank and Anna Jaworski, Bob Daigneault, Bill Tse, Sue Dove, and Brenda Vignaroli. Frank also did all of the illustrations for Anna’s first book, “Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome: A Handbook for Parents,” and for the Glossary of “The Heart of a Mother.” He wrote an essay and the connecting material for the book, “The Heart of a Father.”



Frank Jaworski loves traveling, cooking, reading, writing, and playing with his two new dogs – Buck and Chloe.  In addition to hearing him on Heart Dad Sundays during Heart Month, February 2022, he was also Anna’s Fun Fact Friday Guest, and he and Anna made recipes from Amy M. Le’s cookbook “Snow’s Kitchen” for Tasty Thursday.



Frank shares his journey from husband to father, from emergency medical technician to nurse, and what it meant for him to become a Heart Dad. He also shares some advice he has learned the hard way -- from saying good-bye and losing control. It's a touching interview between a man and his Heart Warrior.
