Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My Name is LylaRose but my friends and family call me Dolly.  I am Two years old and have two big sisters and a baby brother. When my mummy was pregnant with me I decided that I didn't want birthday to be in February 2015... I wanted to be born in November 2014 arriving before my mummy's birthday and before Christmas.  I was very, very tiny when I was born and spent a lot of time back and forth from lots of different hospitals, I have beaten prematurity! I have beaten meningitis and sepsis and I'm now a true heart warrior! I have recently (28/02/17) had heart surgery, a new cool device fitted in my little (okay, big ) heart making it work better! ❤️ 

Everything on the 'special' ward 30 including the super cool machines to help keep us heart warriors safe during surgery. Are bought by donations that are made by kind people like yourelf that donate money to an amazing charity Called Heartlink. 

With your donations they help keep the wards to a very high standard and keeps the facilities upto date for us and our families, they buy us lovely books and toys and activity packs to keep us occupied whilst we're resting. They give our family a place to wait whilst we're with the big guys and girls being patched up. I've been to the soft play downstairs before my operation and to the family room - it has a lovely homely feeling and I forgot that I was at the hospital - they're really the best. 


Did you see my picture before I went for my operation? My bed was jungles! When I came back I had a frozen bedding set! It got a bit messy so the lovely ladies changed it to tinkerbell! A lovely man from heart link gave me a heart link back pack ( can't wait to show my friends ) it was full of goodies and a bravery bear.  My mummy is going to help me name him! We will put pictures up and write more soon but for now mummy says I have to rest. 

But please do share my page & donate where possible.  Your donation really can make a difference to tiny people like me. 

Thank you, 

Lots of love.
