Lungs and airway problems

But after two days in the cardiac ward, she developed problems with her lungs and airways. She couldn't breathe without a ventilator because her heart had grown so much that it was pressing against her airways. Her parents were prepared for a long hospital stay. If it didn't get better after a few months, another operation would be called for.

Coronavirus

But then there's the coronavirus and unfortunately baby Erin gets infected. This makes her stay in the hospital even longer than planned.

Fortunately, little Erin turns out to be a true warrior. Because she defeated the corona virus and was recently allowed to leave the corona department. Of course this happened to loud applause from doctors and nurses.
