“There is no time to call an ambulance, just get in the car they will be waiting for you”
“Leave me your keys I will lock up and meet you there”
“No, there is no time to pack a bag, just go now”
This was the conversation we had with an out of hours GP when Maxi was 4 months old.
This was one of the healthcare workers who worked to save his life.
Save the children believe no child is born to die, I agree.

Wow, we are so fortunate to have the right health workers to keep us and our precious ones safe xx
I think if you’ve had a scary experience like that it really brings home the contrast between what we have here, and what is available (or lacking) in other countries. I feel extremely lucky today.
What a nightmare! You bring home a healthy baby and you think you’re home and dry. Thank God for our health care system.
Poor Maxi and both you and Mad Dad, no mother, father or child deserves to go through this. But we are lucky we have a wonderful healthcare system x
Powerful stuff, Jen. Great to see so many bloggers involved with this.
Your photo made me gasp, your words brought tears to my eyes. thanks for taking part and thanks for demonstrating how so few words can be so powerful.
Wow Jen, this really makes the point. Thank you! xxx
This post took my breath away. So powerful.
I hope things turned out ok?
