Hello, my son has been diagnosed with brain damage along with 15 other diagnoses. I'm struggling to come to terms with the latest diagnosis. He is 6 next week and I have a daughter too.

Hello and welcome to the community I am glad you have joined us and hope we can offer you some support.
it must be very hard to come to terms with for you and your family you need to be there for each other and also take every bit of support offered that you can .
The hospital should be able to give you support suggestions and speak to your GP
