A mum says travel between Derry, Belfast and Dublin for son's surgery put the family under pressure.
That means children from Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland are operated on at Our Lady's Children's Hospital in Dublin, while pre- and post-operative care can be provided in Belfast."I always remember the day he went for his open heart surgery in Dublin, them putting him to sleep and I thought this might be the last time I see my baby," said Christina.
At the time of Tiernan's life-saving treatment, his dad Tony had no option but to take time off work and Christina was still on maternity pay.The family were helped by the Children's Heartbeat Trust, a charity that supports families and children. Stormont's Department of health said it understood the anxiety associated with having to travel outside Northern Ireland for treatment.
