Baby Breanna needing heart surgery

Donation protected

Hi my name is Latasha my daughter Breanna was born Friday Dec 9. The following Sunday they sent my baby to St. Joseph hospital. I arrived there & was told they were transferring my baby to Louisville Nortons Children Hospital. Breanna was born with a heart defect called Truncus Arterious. She is gonna have to have surgery to make an artificial valve vessel. Your suppose to have two vessels one going to your lungs & the other to the body. She only has one trying to do all the work. Her left lung isn't very developed. She has the rarest heart defect that hasn't been seen since the 1970's. Not sure when they will be doing the surgery but it has to be done before I take her home. She's already had a heart cath, plus one surgery to add a tube to drain the fluid from around her heart on Dec. 20. Another heart cath is set for January 11. Their making decisions on that test..  All I want is my baby home & healthy. Her home has been in the hospital since she was born.. If anyone could help with gas & expenses I would be very grateful. I don't have any income it's very hard to travel. My mother in law Maggie Eldridge & Father in law Scottie Eldridge & Aunt Shelia Willeford is doing everything that they can to help me.. We have a long road ahead of us anything can help.. Especially in California I'm really needing help to be with my daughter. We were just inform their gonna transfer my baby to Stanford California.. The dr's here has been calling around the world to reach out for help. Praise God they found a Dr that can repair Breanna's heart. Thanks in advance May God Bless You! On January  the 20th Breanna was transferred to Stanford California she was in bad shape when she arrived. The dr's wasn't for sure if they could even help my baby girl. The infection had literally eaten her heart valve. It was completely gone. Then The Dr had decided to do the surgery on the 24th.  She was in surgery for 11 & 1/2 hours..  I thought I was going to lose my precious daughter. She is still on the ventilator & ECMO machine their keeping her paralyzed so her little body can rest.. If anyone could give a little it would help out so much.  We would appreciate it so much! We're in California & it's so hard to get stuff here it's so expensive.. Thank you so much for the ones who has donated & praying for my baby.
