cordeliaCordelia's story

Cordelia was born with a congenital heart defect and at ten days old she underwent open heart surgery which lasted over seven hours. Cordelia rapidly recovered after the surgery and after nine days was allowed home.

She has grown into an energetic two year old, full of mischief and confidence, with a cheeky infectious smile. She is now fine, but still has check ups once a year.

Graham and Barbara's story

Two years ago Graham, now in his 70s, started to suffer from chest pains and breathlessness which escalated during a holiday in Wales.

Graham was diagnosed with heart failure and was discharged a week later. Initially he and Barbara found it difficult to adjust to his condition. Fortunately Anne, their BHF heart nurse helped the couple adjust and Graham gradually got back on his feet.
