His parents want to thank the hospital staff and the children's charity that supported the family Scunthorpe
A baby boy who spent last year’s festive period in hospital will get to enjoy his first Christmas at home in 2022 — and his parents want to thank the staff and charity who supported the family.
The baby boy was rushed to hospital in Scunthorpe, where a diagnosis of pyloric stenosis was confirmed. He was then sent to Sheffield Children’s Hospital to receive specialist treatment. “Following some examinations and hearing about our past visits, the doctor thought Killian could have a condition call pyloric stenosis. This causes the gap between the stomach and the intestine to be a lot smaller than normal, preventing food from passing from the stomach correctly.
Sam said: “He was only a couple of weeks old when all of this was happening and, with Killian being our first child, I was completely panicking. Doctors kept coming in telling us lots of different things such as the treatment he would need and how the surgery would work. But for me, all I wanted to hear was that he was going to be ok.”
Magnolia House is a ‘Home from Home’ located right next to the hospital and meant Killian’s parents were only a two minute walk from his beside. Magnolia House is run by The Sick Children’s Trust, which supports families with a place to stay completely free of charge.Sam said: “Magnolia House allowed me and Craig to always be there for Killian. We could support each other without having to worry about how we would get back to his side in an emergency.
