Most parents don't expect heart disease to become part of their child's story. For a local family, it began within the early days of bringing their baby home.

Jocelynn Busch was just a newborn when her parents realized something wasn't right. Testing revealed a congenital heart condition that would require surgery.

“We will always remember the moment we entrusted our baby girl to the medical team,” her father, Michael, shared, “literally placing her heart in their hands.”

Today, Jocelynn is an energetic, fun-loving kid who enjoys gymnastics, bike rides and walks. She was also named a Heart Hero by the American Heart Association, giving her family an opportunity to share their experience and bring greater awareness to childhood heart conditions.

This summer, we had the privilege of sharing Jocelynn's story in Loudonville Neighbors.

Her story is a reminder that heart health doesn't have an age and that sometimes greater awareness begins with seeing a story we didn't expect.

Then >>> Now

In 2018, only four years after their lives were forever changed, the Wicklund Family was featured in Loudonville Neighbors.

A lot has happened since then.

Read below to find out how nearly a decade later, Deanna Wicklund and family, continue to “pay it forward,,” from Loudonville to across the greater Capital Region area.

Sometimes the people we help end up changing our own lives.
Michael and Sue’s story began in an unexpected way, through a courageous pediatric cancer patient whose determination to bring Michael and Sue together led to their very first date.
Sue, a pediatric oncology nurse at Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital in New York City, was caring for the patient. Michael, a District Attorney in Staten Island had become passionate about volunteering at the hospital, on the pediatric cancer unit in particular.
Michael had come to know Sue’s patient during a summer camp program he volunteered for. The young patient went to great lengths to bring Michael, his dedicated visitor and friend, and Sue, his dedicated oncology nurse, together.
Decades later, Sue continues caring for children and families at Albany Medical Center, while Michael serves as Executive Director of the Irish American Heritage Museum.
Their story is a reminder of how lives of service to others can not only change the lives of others but our own paths as well.

In the summer, when you find yourself at home on a rainy day, do you leave the windows open to hear the rain?

1. Yes, I love the sound of rain!
2. Heck no, I keep thinking there’s a leak.

Are you on Team 1 or Team 2?

Every issue has its own story.

Our feature photo shoot was slightly delayed while Michael Clarke was traveling. As the Executive Director of the Irish American Heritage Museum, it made sense that Michael had been spending some time in Ireland at his family home.

When we returned to planning the photo shoot at the Pruyn House, restoration work had already begun, making the opportunity to capture the historic home a little more time sensitive.

Here's a look behind the scenes as our talented photographer, Christina Primero Photography photographed Michael Clarke for our June feature, accompanied by the sounds of Michael's accordion echoing through the halls.

A special thank you to all involved for a unique photo shoot and historic issue of Loudonville Neighbors - Best Version Media.

It's Farmers' Market Saturday.

And we may have found one more reason to visit the farmers' market.

If you're heading to the Capital District Farmers' Market today, be sure to stop by the pet adoption clinic with Steve Caporizzo you might just meet your newest family member.

Farmers' markets are one of our favorite ways to support local growers, makers, and community organizations throughout the Capital Region.

Do you have a favorite farmers' market? Share it in the comments so others can discover it, too!
