Our son Oliver is a wonderful little 4 year old boy, who in February 2016 when he was 3 and a half became very unwell he was rushed into hospital because he had a seizure at home.
After numerous tests Oliver was diagnosed with Meningoencephalitis which resulted in a severe acquired brain injury. From being previously fit and well, he is now unable to communicate, walk eat and see. He has visual difficulties and requires a high level of care 24 hours a day.
Oliver needs intensive physiotherapy, speech and language therapy and occupational therapy. He is currently PEG fed and is under the care of specialists within the Children's hospital in Oxford. He will be going to rehab and will continue to need a high level of care once he is at home.
We need as much help has we can with care and equipment for Oliver's life to be as fulfilling as possible.
