‘It’s been the most emotionally draining, frightening week of our lives.

Happy news: Jordan and his wife Naomi welcomed their third child at the end of April. They also share son Cassius Ashley, four, and daughter Mayowa ‘Mimi’ Angel, three, after marrying in August last year

‘We’ve cried a lot, we’ve barely slept, and we’ve discussed the worst… but we’ve carried each other through possibly one of the most traumatic weeks of our lives..

‘You never think it would be your baby and honestly I can’t explain how awful it is having to leave your poorly baby behind in a hospital and go home and just be ‘mummy’ to your other children when inside your heart is breaking.’

She added that she was lucky to have Jordan to support her and do alternate nights at the hospital so that one parent could look after the other ow kids.  

Naomi penned that it has been ‘tough but she had done the best for their babies and that all she wants now is for her family to be back together ‘where they belong’. 

She went on: ‘We are over 5 days in and we finally have a stable temperature. Things are looking positive for Tre Tre and we are finally seeing an improvement. 

‘Our super brave strong boy has had all sorts of blood tests, a lumber puncture and constant prodding and poking this week but there’s finally light at the end of the tunnel and we cannot wait to get him home where he belongs.

‘We still don’t really have answers and it’s another week ahead of antibiotics but he’s on the right path and we are just keeping positive.’

She then shared a list of the symptoms that he had experienced so that other parents could spot the signs.
