My grandson is coming home today, he's 6 weeks old and was born with a rare heart defect, blue lighted from our local hospital to Great Ormond Street Hospital at just hours old and had open heart surgery at 2 days old.
This has been without doubt the most agonising, scary and heartbreaking experience, my heart broke for his mum and dad when the doctors just kept saying that he's very very sick.
But he's done amazingly well and today he's coming home 💙

Such wonderful news! 💐

That’s incredible news - genuinely made me feel all warm.

My dd had heart surgery as a baby and I remember the feeling you describe. She’s 14 now and absolutely thriving - I have to remind myself that we went through all that with her.

Best wishes to you all.

Lovely news enjoy spending time with your grandson

What wonderful news. My gd is seven weeks old and I know how worried I would have been if it had been her. Although people moan about the NHS we are so lucky for the skills our doctors have.
Best wishes to all the family.

Omg @Babybreath
This has made me cry. The skill of these surgeons is amazing and the spirit of these tiny babies knows no bounds.

Fabulous news. So pleased for you all.

I'm so glad he's finally well enough to leave hospital.

Now it's time for the whole family to heal. Be kind to yourselves, those days leave scars which will take some time to get over.

This just put a huge smile on my face (and a tear in my eye)! Delighted for you all. Wishing him the very best x
