Hi, my name is Saffy and this is my story. I&rsquo;m 10 years old. I was born with a heart condition called VSDs, which meant I had holes in my heart. In fact, 50% of the heart septum wall was missing! Since I was little, I have had to have lots of operations and treatments at Alder Hey Children&rsquo;s Hospital. My first operation was open-heart surgery at just 4 weeks old! Alder Hey has been a really important part of my life. The doctors, nurses and everyone there have looked after me through some difficult times and helped me get through each operation. About 5 years ago, I had to have a pacemaker fitted. It was another big step in my journey, but once again, the amazing team at Alder Hey were there to look after me. I just turned 10 years old in June this year, which feels like a really special milestone. I&rsquo;ve been through a lot in my 10 years, and I&rsquo;m so grateful to be able to celebrate this milestone with my family and the people who have helped me along the way. I&rsquo;m now raising money for Alder Hey through BHF because I want to give something back to the hospital that has done so much for me and so many other children like me. I know how important Alder Hey is to children and their families, and I would love to help them continue to provide the amazing care they give every day. Every donation, no matter how small, would mean so much to me.
