It was meant to be a day where a young dad who underwent huge lifelong adversity finally got his life back on track.
Mitchell Powell set off from his home in Swansea on Wednesday, February 3 last year, together with a convoy of his mum Caroline, dad David, sister Kirsty and fiancée Danielle in other cars, heading towards Bristol Heart Institute to undergo long-awaited double heart valve replacement surgery.
Having experienced a significant decline in his health, he was excited to get the treatment over and done with, before returning home with his family and fiancée Danielle and daughter Lylah.
