Strabane mother warning after chicken pox virus

The 4-year-old James Mullan ended up in hospital fighting for his life because he had a virus called the chicken pox. The mother warns parents to be aware of the dangers of chicken pox. Her child became seriously ill. He had to spent 6 days in the hospital. The mother of James said parents must look out for the signs when something is not right. The signs can be; if you can’t control the temperature, your child doesn’t want to eat or drink and when you see swelling it is best to contact the doctor. But don’t take no for an answer.

In some cases they don’t, so don’t let them stop you. That is what I learned from this article. This boy could have died because of the lame reaction of the doctor. But this caring mother was sure about her case and wants to warn other parents. It would be terrible when the child died because of a wrong diagnoses,
