Chris and Ashton Hodge are a young couple who were expecting the birth of a son. They were very responsible about the birth of a child, so they passed all the examinations on time. At one of them, doctors reported a very terrible diagnosis — the boy has hypoplastic heart syndrome. After birth, the baby underwent surgery.
This is a terrible diagnosis, because only a few survive with it. The boy survived 9 heart surgeries, during which he was resuscitated 3 times, and the boy also had a stroke. To survive after such a thing is just a miracle!
After birth, the boy had only 2 kg, so he was still being prepared for surgery so that the child would gain strength. During the first week, doctors performed the Norwood procedure, the essence of which is to improve blood circulation. When he was only a week old, the first operation was performed.
Everyone was very worried about this baby. The kid was alone with the doctors in the middle of all these medical devices. But they were sure that he was also fighting for life.
After a year and 3 months, he was finally discharged from the hospital. Unfortunately, soon he had a stroke again, and the baby was hospitalized.
Today, the baby feels quite well, but in the future he needs a heart transplant.
Jack is a very cheerful boy, despite what he had to go through. He smiles all the time and amuses others. This boy will be fine, because he is a real hero.
