At our 20 weeks scan we were told our baby had duodenal atresia (A blockage between the stomach and bowel) and would need surgery at birth at the RVI in Newcastle

When Max was born we had a two week stay at the RVI. The sick childrens trust helped look after us, provide a place to eat and sleep and recover! We would of been lost without them with living an hour away and I want to try and give back to the charity that helped me and my family so much.
