Her 2 year old son, Weston, needed open heart surgery to fix a small hole in the lower chamber of his heart. To cope with the anxiety, stress and worst-case scenarios running through her mind, she poured her heart into crafting beautiful bracelets. In June, Weston, Sherri, and her husband Evan travelled to Edmonton for surgery. Fortunately, the surgery was successful and Weston recovered well. Sherri chose to share the bracelets and stories of other brave heart heroes by selling them &#8211; <strong>donating 100% of the profit<\/strong> to the Mending Little Hearts Fund. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.serenejewelry.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Seren Co.
