Home and Away Spoilers: Levi Fights to Save Harper’s Baby!

Whilst Levi felt this was the better option, he wasn’t afraid to admit to girlfriend Mackenzie (Emily Weir) that the prospect of performing this sort of operation on someone so small, let alone the child of a friend, was terrifying.

As last week’s season finale episode came to a close, Tane and Harper decided they were going to name their baby boy Archie Wiremu, which consists of the name of Harper’s grandfather, and Tane’s late brother Ari’s (Rob Kipa-Williams) middle name respectively.

A short while later Levi was awaiting Harper’s arrival in the operating theatre…

As we pick up where we left off next week, Harper talks with Levi before she goes under the knife, and asks him to promise that should anything happen, he prioritise saving the baby.

Levi hesitates before reluctantly agreeing to her request, just as anaesthetist Harry (Paul Hughes) puts Harper under.

Levi’s nervous as an incubator is rolled in, hoping that he won’t have to use it, and as he begins surgery it soon becomes apparent that it’s going to be a lot more complicated than anticipated. He cannot decompress the cyst as planned, and will have to cut it up with a laser scalpel.

It’s incredibly fragile work, and as Harry warns Levi that he needs to work quickly in order to keep both Harper and the baby stable, Levi snaps back to let him do his job.

Shortly afterwards, with the baby’s heart rate already up, Harper’s blood pressure dangerously rises.

The team manage to settle Harper, but her BP once again briefly rises as Levi resumes work. The obstetrics surgeon assisting, Dr Khurana (Emily Havea), warns Levi that if it happens once more, then she’ll have no option but to deliver the baby.

Back on the ward, Tane is becoming increasingly impatient, and lashes out at Dana (Ally Harris) at her inability to get any updates from her fellow staff. Dana chooses to walk away before she says something she’ll regret.
