Theodores heart journey

Theo is a 6 month old little boy born with complicated heart issues found at a 34 week growth scan. He was diagnosed with critical aortic stenosis and severe mitral valve regurgitation along with poor left ventricle function.

He's receiving care at BCH where he's been intubated since birth, he's had 2 open heart surgeries and 2 cardiac catheters, one of which ballooned his aortic valve at 2 days old. Theyve now found that they can no longer offer any further surgeries as his heart is just too complex and he's also been diagnosed as in heart failure.

He also has severe bronchomalacia, and is dependent on ventilation.

We are truly backing our little fighter, who's shown us all how strong and brave that he is and deserves the chance to live and have a happy life at home with his family.

We've been advised to make memories with him now and our last hope is that he can recieve a heart transplant at some point in the future as he isn't eligible at the moment.

Any money raised will be used towards a nice little caravan holiday with family if he gets discharged so that Theo can see the beach, we want to show him the world and so far all he has known is living in hospital.
