My nephew Fionn was diagnosed at his 20 week pregnancy scan with a very serious heart defect. ❤️🩹 ❤️🩹 ❤️🩹He was welcomed in to the world at 30 weeks weighing 2lbs/900g. - it was a very scary time specially for his mom, dad and brothers. Essentially he has half a heart plus a very significant sternal defect. His life at the beginning was so fragile that he was anointed and baptised in the neonatal ICU. Every beat of his heart and every breath he took was a monumental effort. After a very turbulent and touch-and-go start which involved his first heart surgery at 12 weeks, he is turning a fantastic four years old soon 🎉.
In recognition of his brave journey and the journey yet to be travelled and the journey of so many kids like him, I am fundraising for Heart Children Ireland - I am getting a MAJOR HAIRCUT AND COLOUR on THURSDAY OCT 21st! The bigger the donations the more major the hairstyle so READY SET GO!!!
See BEFORE PICS in the gallery at the top of the page........watch this space for after pics 😘! Congenital heart defects are not always obvious but are very limiting and a constant worry. These kids and their families count on our support to ensure life is not just all about scary surgeries and hospital appointments, but about giving them a leg up to live life to the full and reach their full potential. All funds raised here will go DIRECTLY to this great cause. Please help by donating whatever you can.
