June is still alive and well today even after two open heart surgeries and several other operations on her heart, which was situated on the wrong side of her body. Her last operation, on arteries in her neck was in 2000. She currently resides in Leeds and is in perfect health, considering doctors told her she wouldn't live past 2 years old.[citation needed]
