“The worst part was seeing her come out of surgery so helpless and them poking her and me not able to do anything,” a tearful DeJesus told RadarOnline.com about 13-month-old Stella’s frightening surgery on August 16, 2018.
DeJesus’ daughter was diagnosed with septic arthritis she previously told RadarOnline.com and she suffered an infection.
“Hopefully the infection doesn’t come back,” DeJesus told RadarOnline.com.
The little girl was not out of the woods yet her mom said. “She needs to stay on antibiotics for 6 weeks.”
DeJesus told RadarOnline.com she leaned on God for support during the surgery. “Of course, I prayed,” she said.
“My mom was with me and my best friend Shirley,” DeJesus said about her support team during the surgery.
But her baby daddy Luis Hernandez was a no-show for the surgery. “It sucked,” she told RadarOnline.com. “I didn’t get much from him but whatever.”
