4:14Now PlayingRyan and Amanda Blanchfield needed all the time they could get in the days following the birth of their first child, Cash.
Doctors told them their son had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a condition which causes the heart to thicken. Within a few weeks of his birth they found themselves at Children’s Hospital Colorado.
While Cash waited for a heart transplant, his dad's fellow South Metro firefighters covered all of his shifts. All told, they would work seven months for Ryan.
