Far too many children with Downs have negative treatment ,13 years ago my son and daughter in Law had a struggle to get my grandson treatment for pneumonia and he nearly died ,it has to stop

Oh yeah, sorry for killing your daughter, but don't worry, we have things in place now. Absolute joke and the NHS in general is a shit show.

Let me tell you as a Dr the difficulty with sepsis and children. Viral infections which almost every kid has can mimick the same signs, high HR, temp etc. Do we send all kids for blood tests? There's no quick simple test currently. It's sad, no Dr wants to miss this.

Cld the inadequate treatment be b/cos of the child's disability?

Poor woman, how awful! I wish the best for her, & recovery from her pain.
