Dear Ramiro,

It was heartbreaking to know about the situation your beautiful kid is going thru. But, let me assure u that God has his way & I pray the she shall have all the success in her life. Amen.

HLHS (Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome), which I believe your lovely daughter has, is a "rare" congenital heart defect. Which requires a series of operations by a pediatric cardiothoracic surgeon ('Norwood procedure' in infancy, 'Glenn procedure' at 3 to 6 months of age, and the 'Fontan procedure' at 3 to 5 years of age). However, the prognosis is good.

Prognosis
While infants successfully treated for HLHS have a good chance of survival. HLHS patients run a high risk of endocarditis, and must be monitored by a cardiologist for the rest of their lives to check on their heart function. Children who have gone through this procedure have played 'football' and have had children of their own. Thus, I am sure with all our prayers, God's benevolence & your perseverance, she will have a good future.

On the Canadian Immigration
Unfortunately, the Canadian PR process aims to check on any medical condition that would lead to a drain on the Canadian Healthcare as well as its Social Services. So, they might put a 'spoke' into your PR process. However, I would suggest meet a DMP in your area, discuss the case with him/her & put-up all the facts, diagnosis, prognosis etc. And take their expert opinion.

Probably, they may call for a stringent scrutiny, varied medico-legal analysis & arguments; and let u pass the immigr process with a 'Medical Surveillance'. I am not sure though, as I haven't come across any similar case/s earlier, but I am positive that if u do not relent -things might fall into the right place.

I wish I could add anything further, but please rest assured that I am with u, we all are with your family !

All the very Best !

God Speed...

She has Down's Sydrome; I can therefore relate to your anxiety and conceren. First and most important, I am sure Inshallah your child will be fine and I wish her the best of health and God Bless you all.

Secondly, Qorax, I cannot thank you enough for this. God Bless you Captain, You actually did a research and have given a very detailed reply. It makes me soo proud that as an Indian I am your country cousin. the world keeps running because of kind and selfelss people like you. God Bless you.

Thanks qorax for the detail reply and the good wishes.
My daughter is now in very good conditions. Her operation was successful. She has one ventricle. Your answer gives me some hope about our immigration process. My wife, daughter and me already had our medical review for the immigration process, but the uncertainty about the result makes me feel very anxious.
Thanks again.
Ramiro.
