Errol Milner Clifford: Pre-Op

Errol Milner Clifford 2006-2009

Errol Milner Clifford was born with a significant heart defect and a cognitive disability that prevented him from walking or talking. As we grieved the child we had anticipated, Errol’s full-bodied smile and irrepressible laugh turned our sorrow into joy, and taught us that many of the best things in life are unexpected. Inspired by Errol’s delightful spirit, friends, family, and neighbors rallied to support our family’s significant emotional, physical, and financial needs, through countless acts of selfless generosity. When Errol’s courageous heart finally failed him on December 23, 2009 we were left numb with grief. In these dark hours we listen hopefully for the echoes of Errol’s brilliant laugh. This blog is the story (starting from present and working back to Errol's birth) of the life and times of the amazing Errol Clifford.

Pre-Op

Errol's pre-op visit with the amazing, Dr. Hines is tomorrow, Wednesday, August 5th at 1:00. We'll get more details about Thursday's surgery then. Our hearts and eyelids are heavy. We hope Errol's doctors are getting all the sleep we are losing. Errol, of course, is happy as a clam. More updates to follow...
