Biography

Margaret was born 2 weeks early. During labour me and Margaret became septic and she went straight to NICU. The next day Margaret started to vomit, Margaret had a meconium ileus and was rushed straight to the RVI where She had her bowel operation. We stayed for 3 months due to complications. Two weeks from her birthday we found out she had cystic fibrosis and a right sided aortic arch.
Around Christmas time 2018 we ended up with another 2 week admission in the LGI due to Margaret growing pseudomonas, then in January 2019 swine flu meant 3 weeks in the LGI.
In the February and March of 2019 Margaret ended up with a blocked bowel again with a two week stay to get it unblocked. After this Margaret had a lovely summer and she managed to make it through the winter on oral antibiotics. In November 2019 I took Margaret to the doctor due to her unusual behaviour and she was diagnosed with social and communication disorder. In February 2020 Margaret had open heart surgery at the LGI where she is currently still a patient. Margaretâ€™s done unbelievably well and we are all so proud of her, she so strong.
