Dr. Amy Beethe and her husband Ryan welcomed six foster children, including a child born with congenital heart disease, into their home. True, a 9-year-old boy, was the first to join their family after being alone in the hospital during his surgery due to his caseworker’s COVID-19 diagnosis. The medical team praised Dr. Beethe for her efforts, stating that his adoption has given him “all the options available” for a heart transplant. True and his siblings have thrived with the new family, who say they’re grateful for the love and support they’ve received.
