Hi there, has anyone any news on Little Leon, I know his daddy said he wouldn't be putting updates on here much longer.
But we just so hope that he is improving day-by-day and it won't be long before he is home and they become a family again.

The blog is still being updated and there should be a piece in the Evening Post either tomorrow or early next week according to that.
He looks like he is still improving from what I've read of it.

Fingers crossed that he can return home at some point soon

Wow, hello thanks for asking, well the news is all good, well better than good ists amazing, yesterday just 12 days after major surgery lasting in excess of 12 hours we were able to take Leon home, he is fit, as well as can be expected, just a little battle scarred and bruised, he will need regular check ups, but the initial prognosis is very good. His blog will be updated shortly to reflect this, but as you can imagine we have just been enjoying being together at home. I hope to get to the crusaders game and weather permitting will take Leon along to cheer the boys along showing them the support that all of you have shown us.
Many thanks from all of us for the kind wishes,
Don, Helen & Little Leon

Thanks for all the latest news Don, Helen and Leon, soooooo pleased he is home.
Hope to see you all at the Crusaders game.
A couple of weeks ago myself and the wife went collecting signatures at the Halifax Gala, it was amazing how people had heard about the proposed closure of the Unit and were only too pleased to sign, we must have got 100s of signatures that day, hope that it will make a difference..!!!

Again a big thanks to all tha have spared a moment to think of us. We are hoping to make the Crusaders game, although I Think Little Leon has suffered enough in his short life so I may spare him if the weather is poor.
Regards
Don, Helen and especially Little Leon ( now available for personal appearances!!)

Ok. As it has been a while, and being the off season I don't see some of you here's a quick update on Leon's progress.
All the components of his original operation appear to have been successful, the initial follow up appointments have all been good news.
However, as with any major heart issues further issues can arise at any point, and one thing that we hoped would correct itself hasn't. The upshot of this is that little - Leon will need a procedure called a balloon catheter angioplasty to try and correct an issue with his pulmonary artery. We are. Awaiting a date for this hopefully soon. Allayed to this he has some "developmental" issues, again, not uncommon with his type of condition, so he is off for an MRi scan off his bowel in the next couple of weeks, to identify what remedial action is required.
While this may all sound a bit negative, it's not how we view it. The little lad has been through so much already, this is, we hope, just the final prices of the very difficult jigsaw of putting everything right. He just smiles, laughs, demands and gives out loads of hugs, and keeps patting the Wildcat logo on my shirt!
Hopefully he will be fully up and running come the new season, his blog is updated fairly often on www.little-Leon.blogspot.com
Hope to see you all soon
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I really hope that you can start to see light at the end of the tunnel now mate and Leon gets this procedure successfully out of the way and onwards and upwards.
