Ella was born with a condition called Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA), where the two main arteries leaving the heart are the wrong way round. She had heart surgery at just a few days old to 'switch' the arteries to their correct places. Now 19 and at university, she talks to Molly Tresadern from the BHF about what it's like to grow up with a heart condition, and the things she's learned along the way.
