My daughter had bacterial meningitis. Doctors were ignorant and turned her away TWICE. Don't ever listen to doctors when you have a strong gut instinct. Especially as a parent. You know your child. We were so lucky. We still have our baby girl and she's doing so great.
blackbird780 My daughter had streptococcal meningitis instead of meningococcal. So she did not lose any limbs. She did however suffer a stroke from a blood clot that formed in her brain. It caused that portion of her brain to die. I noticed she was a bit off. acting sick. But what really worried me is that she would cry when we would pick her up and moving her around. If we layed her down she would stop. I took her into the ER and they told me she was just teething (because she had a mild fever) I knew it wasn't right and persisted but they sent us home. she cried and cried and cried so my mother in law decided to take her for the day. I gave her a bottle, she fed but did not open her eyes at all. During the day I had no idea she was getting sicker and sicker. I could not understand how no one saw how sick she was. My mother-in-law said she seemed fine but when I went to pick her up she was white as paper, moaning in pain, I took her temp right away and as soon as it hit 102 and continued to go up I rushed her to the ER. While we were there she had her first seizure. Later on we were informed that she had her stroke between the first time we took her to the ER and the second. All of the signs were there. If they had only listened to me it could possibly have been prevented. Three weeks after coming home from the hospital surviving meningitis the symptoms continued. I immediately brought her to the ER. The doctor told me she was fine because, get this, she looked better than she had the first time he saw her. And he turned us away once again. Only this time I didn't listen to him. I took my daughter straight from there to children's hospital and they did a scan only to find that she did indeed have it once again. My baby survived though. She's our little miracle
I was four months old. Poor Mama. So sorry for you. I am now in a Care Facility. I need to be constantly watched because I am prone to falls and I am now too difficult for anyone to care for me outside of this facility. 😮🎉The Staff are all kind and lovely to me. For which I am always grateful.
That baby girl omg as a mother, I can't even imagine what this is like but my whole heart goes out to each of them. I'll never make sense of why bad things happen to good people. I have a rare brain tumor and chiari malformation where the bottom of my brain herniated outside of my skull and is pressing into my spinal cord. My son was tragically killed after bible study 3 weeks ago and I just don't understand.... But I do know that I have to keep going as much as I don't want to.... I hold this youtube channel very close to my heart. Hugs & love to all who see this :) from New Orleans...
ClaireNicole33 I had chairi malformation, but had surgery to help. I also had tethered cord, cmt, and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. it's amazing on how many thing can go wrong and how many people a "normal ". for the ones that have to deal with the rare health issues it's hard but makes us strong. it's sad but it's also for the strong fighters. I hope your doing well and hope this comes across positively and not in a bad way ! stay strong and fight on
ClaireNicole33 wow, you're VERY strong. I'm sorry to hear about your troubles... horrible thing to go through. It's true it seems... good people seem to get the most hardship. My theory is that life is a training ground or "matrix" if you like. We are "plugged in" to experience many different things (good and bad). These things are meant to build our wisdom and strength on the other side. Perhaps, we CHOSE our particular life experience because we are on another level of wisdom and require more of a challenge. This is shown by our good hearted character in a tough world full of ugliness. Maybe we come into this "matrix" with agreements, prior to entering, with other souls. We chose each other for different roles, in our lives, in order to help challenge each other spiritually. When we enter though, we have an amnesia of our REAL existence in another dimension; therefore, we forget we are supposed to learn from it all. The wiser of us pick up on it and live our lives through holding to our good morals and growing from the worst of experiences. The "younger souls" maybe don't pick up quite as easy and can sometimes allow their bad experiences to tear them down instead of build them up and strengthen them... they let a lot of lessons slip through their hands at the start. These "younger souls" are the lost ones... the ones that perform heinous acts or simply tear others down around them (but their purpose will bring us the challenges we need as well as all of the tough times we experience). If this is all true, perhaps you and your son CHOSE each other before you came into this "training ground". You planned it all to go exactly as it has for reasons beyond our knowing in this amnesia state we exist in
MsRespect247 Thank you for sharing your story:)... I couldn't agree more on how amazing it is that so many things can go wrong. I have many other health issues including an infected 8 by 10 inch hernia mesh screen that's slowly killing me. It's my second one due to my body rejecting the first one. I'm now told that nobody's gonna wanna remove this one bcuz of the risks associated with it. REALLY? You mean technology can do whole face transplants, BUT CAN'T REMOVE AN INFECTED HERNIA MESH SCREEN!?? I have Louisiana medicaid and that's why I'm left to die here!! I'm happy when I see success stories like yourself with your chiari surgery bcuz they're rare. I love this channel so much. I think it's a wonderful place where we can come together and share our stories and be supportive of each other:)...
Attitude Thank you very much. One day at a time, it's difficult but I have to continue on. Thank you for making this channel. I would love to know more about who created this channel and why and just all about you wonderful people/person. Maybe you could make a video about it, or if you already have please let me know. I've watched many many vids on this channel but haven't seen any about the channel creater:)... Thanks♡♡♡♡♡
Thank you God for the life of my family, son ,friends, my self and every one in the world. My heart reaches out to every body going through hard time with their livies .
I had meningitis last year, and the only things I have is vision issues, virtigo, hearing loss ( I have really cool hearing aids!) I haven't really been able to drive since then. and that's been hard, but I still feel blessed. I could have gotten so much more problems
Such courage in all,children and Mothers,My daughter had menigitis also,but was caught in time and she is fine.Praide God,,I dont know if I would have the Grace of these Mothers.....all the best
I'm surprised the little girl wasn't taught to walk sooner. I've seen videos of toddlers with prosthetics walking. It seems like it would have been beneficial to encourage her when she was younger as she would be more used to it and her muscles would not be so retracted. Does anyone know why she wasn't taught younger?
BBand3DG I'm GUESSING but it might have something with the nerve endings in the stumps and/or some are hard to get the fit right. Then I just thought Maybe the cost? Just guessing.
Were they walking with two above the knee prosthetics? Or were one or both of their amputations below the knee? Having or not having a knee totally changes how you walk and how difficult it is.
On Dec.10.2012 my friend Marco die from meningitis..... I also had it when I was 2 months old. lucky I live with some scars. But my friend Marco 30 years old die so fast...... it happen with 3 days...
In 1984 I had Spinal Meningitis at 5 months old it was the bacterial one and all I know is what I was told the doctor told my mom I had pneumonia so I was sent home twice and just got worse so my mom took me back and it was another doctor who spotted the signs and told me mom if I went back home I would of died 32 years later my own problems with is is scared lungs and learning problem I am thankful everyday to be alive and fast acting of the doctor, I do not know what my body looked like all I do know is I spent 6 weeks in NICU and that I let out a death scream when anyone of anything touched me and that I spent my first thanks giving in the hospital but just made it home for Christmas even though i don't remember anything I feel for the ones who get Meningitis
My Mum had meningitis when she was in collage, she had the viral meningitis. I knew it was bad, but not that bad. She lived and has had 3 kids, and she is still alive. I don't think she has had any consequences.
viral meningitis is thankfully very different to bacterial meningitis shown in this video, people don't die from it and usually fully recover within 7 - 10 days.
In my local newspaper, there was a recent story about a healthy, active 20-something who contracted meningitis at a gym. She survived, but became a quadruple amputee. I know it's a very rare disease. I need to lose weight, but reading that story scared me out of ever going to a gym. All that sweat and other bodily fluids on exercise equipment, transmitting diseases. Yuck!
Just go to the gym but be sure to wash your hands throughly before eating or putting your hands near your face/mouth. Do not share water bottles or utensils with others.
Elphaba Crux Thanks for your advice! I recently spoke to my sister, who is a neurology resident, about germs and gyms. She is a gym rat herself. She advised me to ask the gym about how/if they clean equipment. My sister said that when she uses gym equipment, she thoroughly wipes down all surfaces with disinfecting wipes. I know getting meningitis, or any disease for that matter, at the gym is vanishingly rare. But you don't want to be that one unlucky statistic. However, it seems like taking simple precautions will prevent it.
God bless you Barney and Charlotte you both seem like great kids despite or perhaps because of your struggles.Your strength is huge, your mothers are strong and you both have brilliant lives ahead of you. Keep up the fight kids and never forget many fight different battles but just as hard as you 2 need to. Have to comment that the school you both go to looks fantastic, wish it was here in Au.
I had meningitis and thank G-d they caught it early and I had no long term effects. I didn't even know it was that bad until I researched it afterwards.
This is so horrible and sad. Scares me as I have a 1 year old. Can anyone answer this? She just had her 1 year vaccine... can that REALLY prevent her from catching this or can she STILL get it? Does it simply lower her odds of catching it and how much? If a child at daycare has it, is she doomed to get it as well? This looks like a parents WORST nightmare 😕
blackbird780 it very much depends on the strength of your child's immune system. in most individuals the vaccine grants an incredible degree of immunity, as it trains your body to attack the disease the second it's in your child. however, some children's immune systems are poor, so even if their body recognizes the disease it may not be able to defeat it. furthermore, some children's immune systems aren't very good at recognizing the disease, making them also susceptible. since for the majority of children vaccines work, if every child is vaccinated then you have what's called "herd immunity" in the community. this means that since most children kill off the disease with their healthy immune systems, then the disease never reaches children who are weaker. these plagued of antivaxxers have weakened or, in the case of California, destroyed herd immunity so that these few weaker children are basically just waiting to be in contact with the disease. however successful herd immunity is what destoryed small pox. I know this probably isn't what you wanted to hear as a parent, but I figured telling you would want to know. sources: college biology courses
And follow my way of thinking: if we get the vaccines for free, it means less people get meningitis, and if less people get it, smaller the chances of contamination. It's such a shame to see those big countries not giving the vaccines. Brazil's health system may be f*cked up without the money needed for it to run smoothly, but they really know how to prevent those diseases.
blackbird780 I was unaware that the meningococcal vaccines were given to children under 10. I thought that was only in the case of a community outbreak or living in a high risk area.
Barney, this video is very interesting. thanks for sharing. may i ask you this : one of your photos show you with your right leg, with a special shoe : it seems that something was not good, so you decided to take off this right leg: is ir because painful? other difficulty? As you are, now, you are a very attractive guy, and probably stronger..
there is viral meningitis and bacterial meningitis. bacterial is the super deadly one. viral is pretty bad too, but not as bad as bacterial. my daughter just got over viral meningitis.
I had this but it was the other type and that was a 20 years ago and I have some problems but it is only noticeable to friends who have known me a long time
I'm just curious, what condition does the guy interviewer have? -since he was in a wheelchair for most of the video.. I don't think it was just so he could appear to be like them so they would feel better..
if charlotte is 7 years old then why does she have a dummy. I understand they want her to stay still but she is 7! that should of been taken away at the age 0f 2
I was thinking she may need the soother to help withthe pain levels when they are making casts for her prosthetics- the scraping of skin and pressure from the casting must be incredible.

Um, charlottes handwriting is better than anyone I've seen her age who is able bodied. She's adorable!
Mossy Deer Bones l was going to say the exact same thing, it's better than mine.
My daughter had bacterial meningitis. Doctors were ignorant and turned her away TWICE. Don't ever listen to doctors when you have a strong gut instinct. Especially as a parent. You know your child. We were so lucky. We still have our baby girl and she's doing so great.
Karue22 that's horrible, I'm sorry to hear. Did she loose anything? How did you know she had it at the start?

It caused that portion of her brain to die. I noticed she was a bit off. acting sick. But what really worried me is that she would cry when we would pick her up and moving her around.

She's our little miracle
Karue22 how touching. made me cry. how is she doing now?
Karue22 what a miracle!!!
God bless her. Drs that don't listen is one MF my biggest I hate.

+junbh2 Plus the lack of forearms... making it more difficult to use crutches or to catch herself when she falls.
junbh2 and did you see the prosthetics? it's like a curve at the end... HOW are you supposed to walk on arches?
BBand3DG her moms the problem
both very inspiring being much love to them
Thank you for watching Courtney! Hope you enjoyed!

X_XShyGirlX_X wow. what a survivor!!! Awesome doc who discovered it. are you an amputee? good job when you were newborn!
I admire these people so much !!!!
What a happy positive little girl. ❤️
My Mum had meningitis when she was in collage, she had the viral meningitis. I knew it was bad, but not that bad. She lived and has had 3 kids, and she is still alive. I don't think she has had any consequences.
laura brumell Glad your mom is doing well now. Just hearing about what happens to a lot of people who contract this is so sad and scary.
viral meningitis is thankfully very different to bacterial meningitis shown in this video, people don't die from it and usually fully recover within 7 - 10 days.
My mum had bacterial meningitis and she died... at 48... the meningitis in adult is letal.
In my local newspaper, there was a recent story about a healthy, active 20-something who contracted meningitis at a gym. She survived, but became a quadruple amputee. I know it's a very rare disease.

Elphaba Crux good info.
Positive attitude towards his disability & life
Charlotte has so much to look forward with her disability
God bless you Barney and Charlotte you both seem like great kids despite or perhaps because of your struggles.Your strength is huge, your mothers are strong and you both have brilliant lives ahead of you.

My dads gf had this and didn't do any harm just caused seizures omg she's soooo lucky
Much love to all the children n people who has it...my prayers r wit u all
I had meningitis and thank G-d they caught it early and I had no long term effects. I didn't even know it was that bad until I researched it afterwards.
Thanks for watching Sarahannah2! Hope you enjoyed!
You're okay buddies ^^ , you can do it and this would effect none of yoir dreams ^^ .
Blessed .
My brother had meningitis. Luckily all that was taken away from him was his hearing and nothing else.
Wonderful 17 yr old son
Row Deo and 7 yr old!
Godbless them people -they strong ! such a cute girl !
grazie You are special people
9:05 she has such a nice handwritting! I write worse as an adult than her as a lil child with no hands. Impressive !!!
Never give up your dreams
Thank you!
That rash is unbelievable and that;s the least of her worries.
Heard of meningitis loads of times, but never knew what it was and the things people lose due to it. feel sorry for them :(
Wheel chair rugby looks hard core as fuck

Isabella W oh. well survivors are truly amazing. keep it up. don't let that ear take you down!!! BTW is meningitis only in babies? just curious
😀💙💙
I had this but it was the other type and that was a 20 years ago and I have some problems but it is only noticeable to friends who have known me a long time
I feel you should spread the word that infections aren’t the same as diseases
I just noticed: Is the journalist himself a paraplegic?
Thanks for watching Katherine, yes our presenter Dan uses a wheelchair himself 😊
unDerWorldreamer l
did people get men b vaccine?
mark d I did at 10
Have Measles and spinal meningitis
You guys are not along I have meningitis to when I was a baby to.
They need to control Charlotte's weight though. I have all my limbs, but I'm overweight and my knees suffer so!

Why did Charlotte have a pacifier?
I sucked my thumb until I was 11 but Charlotte doesn't have thumbs so maybe its just a comfort thing.
L Lawliet idk I think it might very hurt so idk
Mossy Deer Bones yeah I think that too
I'm just curious, what condition does the guy interviewer have? -since he was in a wheelchair for most of the video.. I don't think it was just so he could appear to be like them so they would feel better..
mother did it have to be so high
17:10 those nails!!
if charlotte is 7 years old then why does she have a dummy. I understand they want her to stay still but she is 7! that should of been taken away at the age 0f 2
I was thinking she may need the soother to help withthe pain levels when they are making casts for her prosthetics- the scraping of skin and pressure from the casting must be incredible.
