All done, in less than 40mins! He's back on the ward! They didn't have to open his chest again - they just replaced the pacemaker box in his tummy. We are so thrilled, and relieved beyond words to have him back safe with us again.
Welcome to Charlie's News! Charlie was born on November 5, 2003, minus the left side of his heart - a complex congenital heart defect known as Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. He had two open-heart surgeries in his first five months, and had his third stage Fontan completion in March 2010, aged six-and-a-half.
Charlie's heart is special - but not as special as he is!
