Teen Mom's Cory Wharton's Baby Girl Is 'Finally' Home 2 Weeks After Open Heart Surgery


Teen Mom's Cory Wharton's Baby Girl Is 'Finally' Home 2 Weeks After Open Heart Surgery

"What doesn’t kill you makes it stronger," and this is what this did!

Cory Wharton, a "Teen Mom", alumnus and star of "The Challenge", is speaking out about his daughter's health following open heart surgery earlier in the month.

Wharton posted an update to Instagram on Thursday about Maya, his 7-month old daughter, following her surgery. Taylor Selfridge, Wharton's girlfriend, shared the baby girl with Taylor. Maya was released from the hospital after being there for two weeks.

Wharton, 31 years old, shared photos of his daughter, who has congenital heart disease, in his post. He also shared sweet father-daughter shots.

He wrote, "I have good news to share with you all that we finally got out of the hospital. It has been a difficult two weeks and I have felt like a nightmare at times." "But I always try and stay positive and having been at the Children's Hospital two weeks and seeing some families that have been there for months and years, some might not leave the hospital. "I'm so thankful we were released today.

"Maya had a successful Glenn operation!" He continued to refer to the open heart surgery. "But Maya had other plans during recovery. Maya's oxygen levels were lower that what the doctors had expected. Six days later, Maya was back in the operating table for a Cath lab procedure. The oxygen levels were so low that it was impossible to fix. It was much more difficult to get her off of the ventilator the second round.

The "Ex on the Beach” star said that he is "happy and thankful to be back" after the "roller coaster ride" of emotions.

Wharton ended his post by thanking "everyone that supported us and prayed with us during this time."

He wrote, "Love you all" "What doesn’t kill you makes your strength, and this was what happened!"

MTV's star Maya took to Instagram earlier this month to announce Maya would be undergoing open heart surgery. She also asked for prayers from fans.

"The day has finally come @mayagrace.wharton had her open heart surgery today," Wharton wrote alongside a photo of him and his baby girl who he shares with Taylor Selfridge. All I ask is that you keep her in your prayers, and continue praying for the doctors who will be treating her heart.

He said, "We have been anticipating the day for so many months all the anxiety that had built up for months." "I can't wait for her to heal. We can then move on from this chapter. Thank you again, and I'll keep everyone updated.

Wharton posted an Instagram Story the next day in which he updated his followers on Maya's progress following her surgery.

"Just jumping on here quickly, you guys. "I just wanted to thank everyone for your support and all the messages you guys sent," he said.

"Maya is doing OK, but she's not doing well. Wharton said that they are keeping Maya sedated because her left lung is clogged with fluid and she has difficulty breathing. "So, I need that little girl push out all the fluid in her lungs to hopefully get her vitals back to normal. She's still on a ventilator, so she can't breathe on her own. It's part of the healing process. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers, man.

He said that Maya was a fighter, a warfighter, and that she would make it through.

Selfridge and Wharton welcomed Maya back to the world in June. The announcement of the baby's arrival was made by Selfridge and Wharton. However, the former shared the newborn's health struggles since her birth, and revealed that she has been diagnosed with tricuspid atria, a type of congenital heart disease.

Wharton states that "this valve plays an important role in the heart’s essential function, which it is to pump blood between your lungs and the body."

"Don't know where to begin, there's sooo many things I want to say, so much that I've felt in the past week. He shared the following Instagram post: "As a parent, you're scared, worried and nervous, anxious, angry, sad & mad & don't know why this is happening."

Maya had her first open heart operation shortly after her birth. Selfridge and Wharton revealed that Maya would need three more open heart surgeries.

Mila, a 2-year-old girl, was born to the couple who met on "Ex on the Beach." Wharton shares Ryder, 5, with Cheyenne Floyd (Teen Mom) star.
