Thank you everyone for your donations and message of aroha and support ! Sophia Rose Harris entered this beautiful on 10th October 2020 @ 6:57am.
She was born wit Transpotion of the Great Arteries (TGA) and she was also born with Atrial septal defect (ASD) which was unknown till she was born. she has successfully had her balloon operation and successfully had her open heart surgery which took 10 hours!!!! it was the most scariest and nerve wrecking 10 hours of our life.
Unfortunately one week after her major open heart surgery Sophia developed a very bad and serious wound infection which was affecting the tissue around her wound and the fatty tissue near her heart! luckily we caught it fairly early. However this infection caused Sophia to undergo another 2 surgeries. One surgery to put a central line in her neck to be able to give her IV antibiotics, she was on IV antibiotics for 4 days before our cardiac surgeon made the decision to reopen her chest and do a full wound clean out.
Sophia is doing so well on her recovery now and is gaining weight now, she is such a princess warrior ! We are very proud parents.
