We have some news - finally!

It seems like we have been waiting forever but Great Ormond Street have given us some news on Harper's upcoming open heart surgery.

We have been waiting for the cardiologist's to come to a decision on whether Harper should have her heart repaired now, or if it should be left until she's slightly bigger. 

They have decided she will have surgery in 4 months, I have to wait for a letter with an exact date but it will be sometime around May. GOSH will next see her for an outpatient appointment in April, this will be our chance to ask any questions about the surgery.

In a way I'm glad, the bigger she is the easier the surgery will be..it also means I've got quite a while to get my head around it. On the other hand May is the month before her 1st Birthday..we have no idea how long she will be recovering for..just to expect to stay for at least 2 weeks. I'd hate for her to have to spend her Birthday in hospital..but GOSH know what they're doing and that would just have to be something we would deal with...
