Sophie Hinchcliffe has shared an emotional update after her son Ronnie, three, was rushed to hospital.
The internet cleaning sensation, better known as Mrs Hinch, apologised for her "radio silence". In an Instagram story on Sunday evening, the 33-year-old said: "Everything seems like fog right now".
She shares Ronnie, as well as Lennie, two, with husband Jamie.

Her post continued: "Ron's temperature spiked to over 40C and his neck was swelling [with] limited head movement. I couldn't keep meds or fluids in him. We were taken to A&E and sent home with antibiotics and it just didn't feel right.
"My gut told me 'no'. So after phoning 111 we were taken back in and thankfully admitted."
Sophie said Ronnie was then given IV antibiotics and that the family is now seeing a "really, really slow improvement", but that the toddler will be in for a "little longer yet".
She added: "Absolutely nothing prepares you for something like this. Being on a children's ward, seeing so many innocent little arms bandaged with cannulas. I just can't comprehend the whole thing.
"But I wanted to check in on here very quickly whilst Ron's asleep. I share so much of my life on here, the good and the bad. I have a fantastic support network from my followers so I just wanted to say thank you for so many messages. I haven't vanished I promise".
She also said Ronnie "smiled away in the ambulance, loved seeing all the buttons and wires, and now thinks his cannula is his own little wire of magic".
