    Watching this helps but still scary af my son has tof found in utero where I knew most of the possibilities. Today at 9 days old is his first surgery I’m scared of the worst but hoping for the best.

      @@tinytickers6423 it was such an emotional day full of ups and downs. I thought I was mentally prepared but I don’t think anything can mentally prepare to see your 9 day old have surgery. After a 4 hr surgery and 4 hr recovery told by all he is doing great Drs are very happy with the outcome. He is still sedated a bit saw him they say his breathing tube will be removed this morning. So here Jasper goes on the road to recovery

    I am 24 weeks along and my baby has been diagnosed with TOF. Do all TOF babies have chromosomal abnormalities?
