She was screaming in pain
A Leeds baby who was screaming in pain whenever she passed solid foods and a boy who kept vomiting blood were in vital need of liver surgery – but kept being turned away even though their issues were potentially fatal.
One-year-old Maya-Mae, who’d already had one operation cancelled, appeared on BBC Two’s Saving Lives in Leeds which broadcast tonight . The baby was born with a large cyst growing in one of the ducts of her liver. The cyst was life threatening and needed to be removed or risked becoming a cancerous tumour.Maya-Mae’s mum, who was not named, said: “I’m very very nervous for the whole procedure. You just want nothing but the best for your kid.
The anxious mum added: “She’s eating a lot of solid food now, so she’s been literally screaming in pain trying to push it out and I just don’t want her to keep going through that.” Ollie’s dad, who wasn't named, said: “It started three or maybe four years ago. Unfortunately, he was not feeling so well and then he vomited lots of blood. So we took him to A and E.”
