So, if you missed me on Good Morning Britain today you’ll have missed our special news….
William is being promoted to Big Brother.
We are so happy, overwhelmed, and also very nervous. The news is of course tinged with sadness that our little William is not here to share these special moments. BUT our little peanut will have the most amazing Big Brother and Guardian Angel. We cannot wait to tell Williams little brother or sister about their most inspirational sibling.
Please keep us in your prayers for a healthy arrival.
Love to you all from a family a four xxxx

Melissa thanks to your interviews today and highlighting sepsis I managed to get my wife to hospital tonight and get treatment for sepsis. She gave birth to Harry two weeks ago. Thank you very much. Without your prompt we could have ignored her height temp (38.1 then rising to 39.6 later) as just a fever and treated with paracetamol! We are in hospital now and hope she gets well quickly. However your son William, Paul and you may just have saved my wife’s life. Thank you and well done for being so brave – you are making a difference especially in my young family – best regards Rob Caine

Rob, your message has really touched me. I am so thankful that even if talking about sepsis promoted you to think differently then it’s worth it. I hope your wife has a full recovery and is back home before you know it, with you and little Harry. Xx

Melissa, I was truly delighted to hear your exciting news on T.V. It was wonderful to see you being able to speak about a positive amid the pain and sorrow that you have so eloquently shared with the rest of us. I can imagine the joy and also the concerns that you and your amazing husband Paul must be experiencing, but with the two of you, as parents, watching over his/her development here on earth and his/her beautiful big brother William watching from his elevated position in heaven, I am certain no little life could be in safer hands. My love and prayers are with you always
My Deepest love to the whole of your family of FOUR Glenn xxxx
