2018 – Kate and Jack’s Story

January 2018

Despite being in hospital for two weeks, Kate’s son, Jack was not treated for Kawasaki Disease until day 14 of his illness – his doctors were unfamiliar with Kawasaki Disease.  Whilst a diagnosis of Kawasaki Disease was later made and initially a relief, this was short lived as serious heart damage was quickly then confirmed. Kate explains what this means to them as a family.
