Went in with an ear infection that had burst. 24 hours in A&E Wednesday and Thursday this morning said it's now meningitis. I'm so scared.

Thinking of you all. Our son had Pneumococcal Meningitis aged 15 months. It's was a horrific time. He's going to be 12 soon. It doesn't matter how old your child is, they're still your baby.
If you've not already heard of them, there's a wonderful charity called Meningitis Now who offer support and advice to anyone affected by Meningitis (doesn't matter if it's you, or a loved one).
I really hope your son is on the road to recovery very soon.

The drum bursting should have meant it no longer hurt. (If it had just been ear infection)

Our DD had this aged 9.
It was a frightening time but she made a full recovery.

I will pray for your son.

Us too test results it's streptococcus bacterial infection. The MRI is on Monday. He seems brighter but is on morphine so hard to judge. He's asleep a lot

Fingers and toes crossed. He’s in the best place, with people doing the right things. I know it seems hard but just breathe and think positively at this point. 💐
