Happiness is when your beautiful babies make breakfast in bed and handmade earrings. ❤️
At a young age, I was told I might not be able to have children, so I started my family young and was blessed with two girls.
#MothersDay #LongCovid
I had a rainbow 🌈 baby who is in my heart.

I can’t see my Mum today but I am truly lucky to have a mother who raised me to have the strength and resolve. I can’t wait to hug her again.

I have a Grandmother watching over me who taught me empathy, compassion and kindness.
Her presence is felt every day. I miss her hugs.

I have supported women who hope to become mothers, mothers to be, mothers that have lost, mothers whose children have children of their own & women who chose not to become mothers.
It’s a privilege to support women, it’s been
my chosen path since I was 16 years old.

I couldn't have predicted that my path would lead me to #longcovidkids, I've met so many wonderful #Women & together we are supporting mothers & carers of 2000 children dismissed and ignored with chronic health that isn't understood.

Kids do get #COVID19
Kids can be #Asymptomatic or #Atypical.
Kids can have a mild infection, or get #PIMS
Kids can get #LongCovid

2000 kids NOT yet better.
Families disbelieved.

⚠️Contains graphic images.

The numbers of children with #LongCovid are rising with every #COVID19 infection.

⚠️1 in 8 primary age children will get Long Covid
⚠️1 in 7 secondary age children will get Long Covid.

It appears to makes no difference if a child has a pre-existing condition or not.
Tragically children can die.

Thankfully the numbers are low compared with adults.

Every family that has lost a child will be devastated, the fact the numbers are low will have no bearing on their grief.
