Team andrewgray.org.uk are brothers Neil and David Gray and their father, Alistair Gray, who have entered the Men's Health Forum Scotland 10k for Men to raise funds for Yorkhil Children's Foundation.

Andrew Gray

On the 1st of March 2011, at Dr Gray's Hospital in Elgin, Elaine and David Gray from Keith became proud parents to their first child together, naming their boy Andrew.

Following some initial concerns regarding Andrew's health, he was transferred to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Aberdeen Maternity Hospital shortly after birth. Further examination revealed he had transposition of the great arteries, a life-threatening condition where the aorta and pulmonary artery are the wrong way round.

Andrew was subsequently flown to The Royal Hospital for Sick Children at Yorkhill, Glasgow where he received further life-saving treatment until corrective surgery could be performed. The surgery to “switch” the arteries was successfully performed on the 10th of March, and Andrew is recovering well.

We are eternally grateful to the Neonatal Unit at Aberdeen Maternity Hospital and the NICU, Surgical Team, PICU and Cardiac Ward 5a at Yorkhill, without whom Andrew would not be with us today. We also thank the staff of the Scottish Neonatal Transport Service and Scottish Ambulance Service Air Ambulance, for getting Andrew safely to Aberdeen and onto Glasgow.
