So far she has raised Р’Р€7,000, including from a GoFundMe page, and family and friends. She needs to ideally raise half РІР‚вЂњ Р’Р€10,000 РІР‚вЂњ by the end of November so that Thomas can have the first surgery in December, which involves reconstructing the nose and fixing the lip, gum and palette. ThomasРІР‚в„ў mum is trying to raise Р’Р€20,000 for the first two operations, with a third required later when he is around nine-years-old. The first operation, including consultations, surgery, post op checks, and accommodation, will cost around Р’Р€10,000, but prices can vary depending on the amount of time spent in hospital.

This, however, comes at a cost, with two operations needed in the first year of ThomasРІР‚в„ў life. However, with the waiting list as it is, she wanted to take matters into her own hands by going private (at a hospital in London) to get Thomas the best and quickest care to help him long-term for the rest of his life.

Thomas has a unilateral left cleft clip and palette.Р”В¬atherine was full of praise for all the staff at a hospital in Nottingham who have cared for her son and said she cannot fault their fantastic care. However, at a pre op consultation last month, she was told that the surgery would be in January before later being informed that April is now more likely. Thomas was due to have his first surgery at three months old around November/December after Catherine was told in June before his birth that the surgeon had caught up with a backlog. If it is left untreated for too long it could lead to future issues with speech, eating, hearing and the growing of his teeth. The cleft lip and palette causes Thomas to dribble quite a lot and means that Catherine hasnРІР‚в„ўt been able to breastfeed him liked sheРІР‚в„ўd hoped, and has to express six times a day, but thankfully it doesnРІР‚в„ўt give him many challenges in his day-to-day life.

It means that Thomas has a gap within his lip so it isnРІР‚в„ўt fully formed on one side, and now needs surgery, which his mum is trying to fundraise Р’Р€20,000 towards (Р’Р€10,000 per operation). The cleft lip was detected at the 20-week scan before he was born, and the palette issue was confirmed at birth.
