So it all started when Eleri was 2 days old, she was diagnosed with a rare heart condition calle "TETRALOGY OF FALLOT" or "TOF" for short!
This turned our lives upside down! We had to learn how to keep our daughter alive while we waited for emergency services when she was having a "blue spell"....This involved Eleri being unable to breath, going blue and loosing all focus!
At 6 weeks old Eleri had her first trip to Bristol Royal Childrens hospital! So much stress, fear and heart ache as she had her first heart operation!
After many heart scans and pressure of getting Eleri to gain weight at 7 months old she had trip 2 to BRCH.
This time it was for a longer stay! a full heart repair which imvolved open heart surgery!
As you could imagine theough such a hard time as a family we had a lot of stress hanging over us!
The Grand Appeal eliminated many of them stresses by provide us with amazing accommodation with oir own bathroom, a shared kitchen and laundry room, they provided support, love and amazing gadgets to keep our girl entertained through the healing process.
They have supported so many families and carry on to do so!
So this is our way of saying thank you and hope you can all join us to show our appreciation for all the support they provide us and all other families!
