Leeds mum 'cried for days' as 'warrior' baby boy had heart operation at three months
The joy of welcoming her first born baby was "a blur" for mum Stacey who "cried for days" when her 11-week old son had to have a life-changing operation.
Issac was referred to Dr Willcoxson from Leeds, but he remained under our neonatologist who monitored him very closely. He was monitored for 11 weeks and it was decided he needed surgery. "Those 48 hours were the longest. We got packed and ready. We got halfway to Leeds, and I got a call cancelling the operation. They said the surgeon had been in an emergency and he couldn’t perform Issac’s surgery. Fortunately, we got booked in for the Sunday and his surgery did go ahead on the Monday."
Five hours later, Issac was out of surgery and in intensive care. The family said they "ran" to see him and he was quickly showing a positive recovery.
