For episode 46, we are joined by Melissa from Bristol, England, who is the mother of 3 & 1/2 year old daughter Halle who was born with IA/ARM, TOF and associated issues. Melissa shares their journey of dealing with these two major issues at birth which both required urgent surgeries. Halle then had further complications that required more surgery and eventually needing a TPN (which is IV artificial feeding) to allow her body to function.
