Sick babies


Hi everyone. Hope you don't mind me posting this.

On the 13 th Oct my daughter gave birth to twin boys. Which I posted on here.

The boys were only home two days when they were rushed back into hospital. 

Exhaustive and painful tests later . They seem to have contracted Viral Meningitis.

they are in Intensive Care and being monitored very closely.

Being a virus ,  antibiotcs no good. All that can be done is to support the boys while they fight this.

We are all beside ourselves with worry. 

So any prayers sent our way will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Kathy ( Kaid)

Hi Kaid

Sad news indeed but look ahead they are in very good hands. Doctors today are fantastic and care deeply. When my first grandson was born he was very prem. I will never forget the first sight of him he was the size of a BIC BIRO or a vb stubby. But do to the great care received he is now  a great grandson. I do know how you feel and i hope all is well they are in good hands. Im thinking of you.

                                                                                                                                                          Cheers Rob

hope.jpgKath and Dave - how upsetting for you all - poor little fellows. Medicine is good these days, but you do wonder how they contracted the disease. They are in the best place, being looked after with loving care.

Take care, and think only positive thoughts.

Kathy & Dave,

Prays have been sent your way for the boys, their parents and both of you. Had a granddaughter born very early at 820 grams so know how you are feeling, she's now a feisty 4 year old.

Many Thanks To All For Your Messages Of Support.
And to Rocket and strop for your PM.
We will never know how the boys contacted this Virus.
They are slowly on the improve but will be in Intensive Care for 7-10 days
There is a 10% chance they may have received brain damage.
BUT a 90% chance they won't . So this is what we are focusing on.
Many thanks to You All
Kathy ( Kaid)
