Oh wow, I'm sorry to hear that. How old is your daughter?
Also, don't beat yourself up, it isn't you fault at all, and try your best not to worry, as hard as it may be. Personally, I would do the surgery as soon as you feel comfortable and as soon as she does. Try to talk to the doctors and surgeons to feel more comfortable. Good luck. :)

They don't want to do it right now. That makes it hard on me, because I have to watch her while she is playing. She could get over exausted and just fall over... What if I don't see it? I have an upstairs and a downstairs...

I would get the surgery as soon as you can. Sometimes these conditions don't present themselves unless something else is wrong. Doctors can't see everything and don't look for everything, so don't blame them. And definitely do not blame yourself! You did not do anything wrong. The best thing you can do is get her the surgery, and be there for her recovery. Good luck, and I hope everything turns out well.

The day before I found out I was prgnant I went to a bar, I din't get drunk, but still. I had no clue I was even pregnant... I stopped smoking as soon as I found out, cold Turkey... I wish I never drank

I'm really sad to hear that.I suggest that you get the surgery done by all means.A child's health is definitely important.

She will be having the surgery done by some of the best doctors in Chicago... It has something to do with one of her arteries not giving enough oxygen to her lungs... I don't really understand it myself... I have a paper to explain it to me, but I can't understand it either

I think that it is a must for your daughter to do this surgery, if noy, you little daughter may die! Stop asking yourself why, take the action!
