A foreign couple took their newborn son on a family trip to Norfolk, England. Unexpectedly, the son suddenly turned “grey” and was diagnosed with a life-threatening disease following being sent to the hospital. They were immediately plunged into Had a nightmare.
According to the Mirror, Rachel Millbank and her husband Tim from the UK have a newborn son, Elliot, and they took him on their first family trip. Elliot went on a trip, but early the next morning she saw that Elliot was unresponsive and his face was gray. Rachel immediately took her son to the hospital for emergency treatment, fearing that the child would die if she delayed the treatment any longer.
According to reports, Elliott was diagnosed with severe and life-threatening pneumonia and sepsis, and developed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a bacterial infection that is resistant to antibiotics. Rachel said that Elliot’s condition was very bad at the time. He was sent to the emergency room as soon as he noticed any abnormality, but it took a long time to get treatment successfully.
At that time, Rachel and her family were going on a family trip, so before departure, they took Elliot to see a doctor for a physical checkup. After confirming that he was fine, they went to Norfolk for vacation. However, as Elliot’s condition worsened, she and her husband suddenly Full of fear.
Elliot went to the hospital for the first time in March 2019. This was also a long-term battle for the family. Rachel and her husband recalled that when Elliot was just born, he had some cold symptoms, such as chest tightness, cough and nasal congestion. .
Rachel said that when they first arrived at the hospital, Elliot was drowsy. It was not until the early morning that he had difficulty breathing, cross-eyed symptoms, and his limbs were curled up in his body like a fetus. “We didn’t know what was going on, but we were so scared of losing him. There were so many doctors and nurses going around Elliot at the same time, and it was a really scary time.”
Two weeks later, Elliot was seriously ill and fell into a coma, so Rachel transferred him to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. Rachel struggled. “I watched him close his eyes and wondered if his eyes would never open once more.” After Elliot was diagnosed with MRSA, she and Tim They were told to use medicated shampoo to make sure they were free of the virus, but they were confused regarding where it came from because Elliot was only 10 weeks old at the time.
A few days following being transferred to the hospital, Elliot showed signs of improvement, such as the size of the pneumonia mass and his recovery from coma. However, because Elliot no longer took morphine, doctors would pay more attention to Elliot’s condition.
According to reports, Elliott was finally discharged from the hospital in April of the same year. He is now 4 years old and has fully recovered. Although there are a lot of scars on his chest caused by the surgery, except for the occasional cold, it has not affected his life.

So far, he has raised 1,700 pounds. More importantly, We appeal to everyone to be more alert to signs of illness in children.
