We shared her story back in January.

Emily& #39;s family are asking for your help, their little girl is desperately ill and getting worse.

She is one of a growing number of children with #LongCovidKids who are getting worse, not better. https://twitter.com/LongCovidKids/status/1350368310165196802">https://twitter.com/LongCovid...

She was a healthy, happy girl before she got #COVID
Now she has regular seizures & daily pain.
Her hospital notes are missing.
She is missing her milestones.

Despite sending the hospital multiple videos of the episodes @RCHTWeCare say Emily now has anger issues and it& #39;s breath-holding.
The doctor said "kids don& #39;t get Coronavirus" and yet @ONS figures show 43,000 are suffering from #LongCovidKids

We don& #39;t know what is wrong with Emily, but it doesn& #39;t seem like breath-holding and anger issues to us!

#LongCovid is a new condition and ignoring symptoms is not good enough.

Emily is one of a number of children being refused help.
