HAPPY HEART DAY!



It's two years today since Corwin's second heart surgery. It was a horrible day with him in surgery for 8 hours, but it is nice to wish him a Happy Heart Day as it is lovely to see him now and see how far he has come and without the surgery he would not be here today, so HAPPY HEART DAY MY GORGEOUS BOY!!


The second photo was taken of him about 4 days after his operation in intensive care. We did not take photos of him before this as he looked so terrible on life support. In this photo he is sat up in a special physio seat as he had a chest infection so need to be upright. He had a lot of fluid retention post op and could not open his eyes for over a week they were so puffy. Under the blanket is a sea of wires. He is wearing a bobble hat as he was cold to touch - I had to take a photo of him in it!

But look at him today...!
