My little girl was born with 2 holes in her heart between her atria.
They won't resolve with age and yesterday we received a letter to say the corrective surgery is scheduled for this Wednesday.
It is done under general anaesthetic and she will be in hospital for three days if it all goes to plan.
A catheter is inserted through a leg vein with a little device which will close off the holes. If it is not a success she will have open heart surgery later this year.
Have any of you had experience of this procedure?
Thanks.
