Low blood, flu virus takes its toll

Poor little Henry hasn’t been feeling too well for the past few weeks. He’s had a horrible virus which has meant his body has had to work extra hard, so he’s run out of blood more quickly than usual. He looks terrible, is exhausted all the time and is really struggling to fight off this bug with the blood he’s got in him. Luckily, one of our nurses was able to come and take blood from him this morning and we will be getting him in to hospital for a transfusion as soon as we can. Let’s hope they’ve got enough blood for him this month… When I asked how he was feeling this morning, this was his response!  x
