๐ซIntuition ๐ซ *trigger warning*
This photo was 2 years ago when we arrived at hospital.
2 years ago, my daughter had been at school and came home as her usual self. A few hours later she was complaining that her hands felt โitchyโ and they were red. As a parent that has worked with children for over 10 years, Iโm not one to panic. I gave her some piriton and we carried on as normal.
A whole later she said that they didnโt feel right and my instinct kicked in. Fast forward a few hours and we were at hospital (she was fine in herself at this point). Sats were normal and everyone thought it was an allergic reaction.
It was cold in the room and she has been asleep for a few hours (it was 4am!) and then she woke and asked for a blanket. I got her one and realised that the redness on her hands had moved to her wrists. Something wasnโt right so I got the nurse.
It all happened a bit quick from here but before I knew it, she has been admitted and was fighting for her life.
She baffled a lot of doctors but eventually one clocked what the issue was. Not only did she have sepsis, she also had toxic shock syndrome. Her body was shutting down and I had to sign paperwork to allow them to save it via someoneโs donated blood.
The point of this post is for two things.
To raise awareness about Sepsis and TSS but more so to trust your instinct. As a mum (or parent), there is nothing better than your own instinct. Never doubt it. Never.
If I hadnโt have listened to mine that day, I would have gone to work and let my teenager sleep it off.
Thankfully I didnโt and sheโs here to tell the tale.
That little voice that you hear, trust it. It can save a life. ๐

Babies should not sleep on any surface that straps or holds them in one position, whether that is on their back, front or side.
Some products are sold that claim to help babies relax by holding them in position on their tummy. However, it is very risky if babies fall asleep on their tummies, so we strongly recommend you do not use any item that does this.
Take a look at our product guide for more info: https://bit.ly/2NGSM70

At times when things get a little stressful, itโs important to remember what we are grateful for.
Today, I had to embark on another hospital appointment with my eldest. She almost died nearly 2 years ago and anything hospital related makes me on edge.
Gratitude comes in right there. I asked myself what am I grateful for? Today Iโm grateful for some of my amazing friends checking in. Iโm forever grateful for the amazing NHS who are so amazing. Iโm also grateful for my daughter. She is the strongest person that I know. A warrior in true form.
That alone brings joy.
What are you grateful for today?

If there is one thing that this past year should have taught us, itโs that we should never take anything for granted.
When lockdown happened and people stayed home, our planet started to heal. Pollution levels dropped dramatically, we saw views that nobody knew existed and people took notice.
We still need to do more. We need to buy and use less plastic. We need to have more of a plant based diet to lessen the co2 emissions (not to mention the horrific life that lies within the meat industry! Recommend for information on this!), be more sustainable, look at the chemicals lying in your home, look at your wardrobe.
Today, Iโm sending off over 40kg of crisp packets that I collect via my point that will be turned into something else rather than go to landfill.
Please, protect our childrens future. Even if itโs one change at a time, it all makes a difference.
Be kind to Mother Nature, sheโs the one thing that we can rely on ๐๐ป๐ณ๐๐
