Loving Barrhead mum Louise Countenay is not a woman of faith. But, since someone told her during a visit to CHAS’s Robin House that she’d been chosen to have son Adam for a reason, those are words she truly believes.
When Adam Courtenay came into the world on September 23, 2016, mum Louise, dad David and big sisters, Tegan and Emma, instantly fell in love with him.
A seemingly healthy baby boy who was thriving at home, Adam was five weeks old when he attended hospital for a routine MRI scan to check the depth of the large port wine stain birthmarks with which he’d been born on his face, back and legs.
