A Helping Hand
When I gave birth to my first child on September 3rd, I was excited, feeling her small and warm body between my arms.
But after 24 hours, my baby girl Mila failed her first test. She was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect.
After hearing that I cried so hard, and I couldn't breathe.
It's something no mother should experience.
Her body wasn’t getting the oxygenated blood it needs, her heart functions are all missed up, and blood flow in the wrong directions, and they also found a hole in her heart.
Her first week of life has been lots of poking, blood drawing, and test after test, and it was very hard for me to see that every time, I couldn't eat even after being exhausted from the surgery.
The only thing I wanted to hear is the doctor saying your daughter is gonna be okay.
To fix these defects, she had open-heart surgery and was in surgery for around 5 hours.
She needs to stay for 3-4 weeks, for more testing and surveillance, meaning more expense, until we can take her home for the first time, and hope she can have a normal life.
Please, we really need all of the support we can get whether it's a donation, prayer, or share, I'll appreciate every help.
Please I'm begging you for any support, that can help my baby. Please.
