## Caption

A baby, whose parents feared had just days to live, is "thriving" after having life-saving operations on his heart. Macs Green, a previously "completely healthy baby" suffered two cardiac arrests and was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy - which can lead to heart failure. After an initial struggle to find suitable hospital beds, he has now been fitted with a so-called “Berlin heart”, a type of device that helps to pump blood around the body, taking over the function of his own heart. Baby Macs still needs a transplant and doctors have told his parents they do not know how long the wait will be before he gets one, but since his operation in Newcastle, dad Dylan said he was already "completely different" from how he was before. #BBCNews #Cardiomyopathy #Inspirational #BerlinHeart #HeartTransplant #Wales
