When little Oliver Beverland from Ballymoney was born in June 2019 with a malrotation in his bowel, it was the start of a long and difficult journey with his health.
After surgery to correct the issue with his bowel, the Co Antrim boy then spent 10 months in the Royal Hospital for Sick Children, as he couldn’t absorb his food.
It was during this time that Oliver received the first of more than twenty blood transfusions which he would continue to receive over the next few years.
