My DD8 had a heart transplant a few years ago now, she has been struggling this year on and off after a few good years. She has some changes in her cardiac echo however they said they would unlikely get worse they wasn’t really sure on the significance of the findings.
At 5.45 tonight she went in to perri arrest.
They were amazing and everything had happened so fast, she is stabilised in CICU. No one is allowed in apart from me she looks very peaceful, I am waiting for consultants.
I have been on here a while and sending myself crazy looking at the clock with no one to cry to.
It all happened so fast she was playing in the back and then she came through to say she didn’t feel well. Went to get her some paracetamol and when I came back in she was on the floor.

Oh crikey...Bless you both, hand hold here OP. I really do hope things improve. Must be agonising for you. Keep looking forward, I really do hope she pulls through. She sounds incredibly talented. 💐

I’m so sorry, such a hard situation. Crossing my fingers and toes for you along with handhold.

A handhold from Australia.

Oh my goodness, you poor love and your poor baby girl!

It sounds like you're in the right place (although I assume "sordid" cardiac hospital was a typo?) and that they're doing everything they can but you keep them up to the mark - don't let a single thing slip!

I hope they get it under control quickly - and I'm in Australia too so will be around for a while yet. ((((hugs)))) for you both Thanks

Sending love and prayers. Doctors and nurses are amazing x

HolidayHopeSpringsEternal · 08/03/2021 06:23

I hope today is better for you both. I haven’t RTFT but do you have support IRL?
You need to take care of yourself whilst the doctors take care of your daughter.
Such a worrying time, thinking of you both.

I can't imagine the pain you must feel just now, @Troublewaters2021 but know that you have all of us - so many of us - holding your hands and sending strength and love and light to you and your beautiful girl.
