The Cause of the Heart Failure
This evening, or night ICU Doctor shared with us some interesting information. After the surgeon removed Amelia's heart, it was sent for a study of the function. The report back was that Amelia's arteries supplying blood to her heart were not large enough to allow sufficient blood flow and her heart was slowly dying. Basically, her heart was slowly moving towards heart attack and eventually she would have not been able to live. This was a result of the HLHS condition she had.
