A mum from Coventry has spoken out about how doctors kept telling her that her young son was fine, when he was actually sick with a serious disease from the Victorian times. Megan West, who is 25 years old, first noticed her four-year-old son Elliot was not walking right in December 2024. He was putting his feet too wide and swinging his arms around in a strange way.
According to LadBible, West took Elliot to see the doctor many times because things got worse. He started sweating at night, lost so much weight that you could see his ribs sticking out, and kept getting sick all the time. But the doctors kept saying it was just a virus. She says they also suggested that Elliot might be making things up to get attention because he had a new baby sister at home.
