Kevin Keegan and Gazza send messages of support to toddler waiting on heart transplant

A toddler who is waiting on a life-saving heart transplant has received messages of support from Kevin Keegan and Gazza.

Little Beatrix Adamson-Archbold, from Burnopfield, County Durham, fell ill in May this year with heart failure. She fought back from a cardiac arrest and is currently waiting at the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle for a donor organ.

Beatrix, who is 20 months old, underwent surgery to attach her to a Berlin Heart Ventricular Assist Device, which does the work of her own failing heart. The machine will enable her heart to function until she hopefully receives a transplant, which will save her life.
