Surgery Story - Cameron Mark Rondi

 

Cameron Mark Rondi was born on the 10th of March at Olivedale Hospital.  When he was born he was diagnosed with Craniosynosis, it was picked up at birth as he was born with facial distortion, his skull had tried to compensate to allow for the brain to grow, so had pulled back and down and an extra piece of skull had formed on his right hand side of his head. 

First Surgery - 25 July 2008

Cameron went in for his Surgery on the 25th July 2008.  It was extremely daunting and we had prayers flooding in left right and centre, the support that our family received was incredible. 

Cameron was prepped for surgery and was in theatre for 7.5 hours, he had blood transfusions etc.

Second Surgery - 16 March 2009

Arrived at the hospital at 16h30 to get ready for my big operation, They took all my blood samples from me and I cried my heart out, it was really sore, but my mom and dad were there to comfort me.  My Anesthetist Dr Lyons came past to explain everything to my mom and dad.

Third Surgery - 10 October 2010

Leading up to surgery, Cam started having raised Inter Cranial, he was suffering terribly from headaches and was daydreaming, and he simply was not his normal happy self. We arrived at the hospital extremely anxious, cause Cammie was now much bigger than before (2.5 years old) and will know and understand the pain and trauma he is about to go through, from a parents point of view, so very hard, cause you cannot protect your child or take on the pain they are about to experience.
