A little girl who was sent home from school with a 'tummy ache' was found to have a rare condition. In December mum Betty was phoned by daughter Esmée's school telling her she needed to be collected.
She had a stomach ache, was vomiting, couldn't keep fluids down and had blood in her urine. After an initial visit to hospital, Betty was told later in the week by a pharmacist that Esmée, six, should be taken back. The family called 999 and paramedics took her to A&E, reports YorkshireLive.
Doctors did blood and urine tests and the results found that her kidneys had failed. Esmée was transferred to intensive care, where she was sedated, ventilated and put on dialysis.
