The parents of a baby boy born with a heart defect are preparing to spend his first Christmas at a London children’s hospital while he recovers from major surgery.
Little Kayden John Thursby was born in Queen Elizabeth University Hospital on December 8 after being diagnosed with unbalanced AVSD at mum Shannon’s 20-week scan.
The tiny newborn was flown to Great Ormond Street Hospital days after his birth for open heart surgery, which was due to take place yesterday for up to eight hours.
