Dad Chris Harry said initially they didn't think it was serious
A dad had to carry his son to the hospital after he awoke and said he couldn’t get out of bed. Chris Harry, from Bebington , thought “nothing of it” when his youngest, Bobby was complaining about some pain. The 39-year-old and his wife, Rachael, 35, put it down to growing pains as Bobby was seven at the time. However, one morning, Bobby said he wasn’t able to stand up from the pain, and that’s when the two realised the situation was a lot more serious than they initially thought.
” After a round of tests, Bobby was diagnosed with juvenile arthritis and spent the next 10 days in Arrowe Park Hospital being treated for the condition. Although not taken daily, Bobby does rely on pain medication for as and when it is needed. He also has check-ups with the doctors every six months. In the UK, about one in 1,000 children under 16 years old have juvenile arthritis. The chronic condition causes joint inflammation and can affect a few or many joints at once.
