Story

3 year old Amelia was at GOSH awaiting a heart transplant after being diagnosed with dialated cardiomyopathy, a rare heart disease. She had been in hospital since June 2022, so over half her life. She had suffered from numberous infections since first going to hospital, as well as sepsis, pneumonia, strokes and months of sedation. She was then fitted with a VAD machine to help keep her heart pumping blood. Amelia became a big sister after being in hospital for 6 months, so little Blossom had never been to her home in Chippenham.

In April 2024, Amelia had a successful heart transplant, and all the family are now back home after being away for 22 months.

Amelia’s story can be found on the following links:

Rich and Jodie have made generous donations to The Grand Appeal and The Sick Children’s Trust, and would now like to raise for The Great Ormond Street Hospital to buy Christmas gifts for the children. They have all been incredible to Rich, Jodie and Amelia since day one, and they will all be forever grateful for saving her life on multiple occasions.

Thank you everyone for all your love, support & donations.
