Autumn's road to recovery

Donation protected

hello my name is Larissa,i originally started this go fund me in April looking for donations in support of my cousin Aaron's beautiful little girl who was at Toronto sick kids in the ICU. Autumn was born with a heart condition and was monitored throughout pregnancy and was delivered at sick kids  2 years ago. They made the decision to wait till she was a bit older till they did the surgery. Initially it was supposed to be in April but when they went down to Toronto for her  pre op appointment to run some tests. During those tests her heart stopped twice and they had to revive her. She was put on life support and was given time for her heart to rest and start pumping on its own. She unfortunatly sustained some brain damage from her tramatic experience. through months of rehabilitation in Toronto she recovered enough to go home in August to give her some time to rest before they attempted her surgery again. October 31st was her official surgery. After a 4 hour surgery that went smoothly she had complications when they went to remove her breathing tube she coughed which put too much pressure on her heart and ruptured some internal stitches. They had to open her back up immediately and had for preformed CPR on her for 29 minutes so it's possible autumn has more brain damage but we don't know the extent at this time. She is currently on life support fighting like the little heart warrior she is.We're back to where we were in April. Everything is touch and go at the moment and not entirely sure on the next steps to autumns recovery.  All I know is the family is in need of some financial assistance during this difficult as we are unsure of the length of time they will be in Toronto this time around. I'm looking to the community for help. If anyone could donate it would be greatly appreciated. Please note that $4000 raised was from autumns first stay in Toronto and was put to great use.

**all donations not used by the family will be donated to sick kids**
