sad news from england

be thankful for every day

mdm,

I reads the article. I feel for her family and what they have gone through watching their young daughter lose her life and the heartache they now have.

Prayers for her family

I have always wondered why some get hit more severely than others with GBS or CIDP. One would think that the older one is, the harder they would get hit, but this is not necessarally the case. Why would one so young, with presumably a healthy heart, end up having a heart attack? Obviously, the GBS weakened her heart muscles, but why? There is just so much we don’t know about GBS & I still don’t understand why it is still being misdiagnosed in this day & age (even though I do realize it is still considered rare.)

When I was in intensive care, they told my family that the biggest threat to my life was heart failure. My heart rhythm and rate was affected. Some also succumb to blood clots. GBS does take lives. We are all very fortunate to have survived.
