This is the story of my son Max. On the 2nd of June, 2011 Max had a stroke and was admitted to the ICU at the Royal Childrens Hospital. On that day he was also diagnosed with Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP). At the time he was only 10 weeks old.

Don't sweat the small (or expensive) stuff
If your child is sick with a cold or flu, be grateful that it won't leave any permanent damage.
If your child cries after immunizations, be grateful that this is the worst thing they have to endure.
If your child keeps you up at night, be grateful that it won't last forever.
If your child damages something expensive, be grateful that they haven't damaged their brain.
