AARON Chalmers' ex Talia Oatway has shared a heartbreaking health update on their one-year-old son Oakley after five months in hospital. Talia revealed earlier this week that her little boy had to go back into surgery after a hole was found in his skull, causing brain fluid to leak out. The influencer and model explained that Oakley has been receiving treatment in hospital for over a month now.
Talia listed the medical reasons why her son had been admitted for so long. Alongside a sweet clip of her son in bed, the mum-of-three wrote: "My champ. Lots of messages regarding why we are here still.
"Oakley had the FOA on the skull on the 13th May. "He has had a lot of complications. CSF leaks, CSF infection which lead to sepsis shock.
"Two lumbar drains, a EVD drain (in the head), IV fluids and antibiotics, four surgeries in total (on this admission). "He was in an induced coma for around six days to help his body while he was fighting the infection. "We have been here nearly five weeks now.
"Unfortunately with Apert Syndrome, the operations don't always go to plan. "Oakley had to have this surgery to help his brain, development and to protect the eyes. "This wasn't done out of choice.
" Talia concluded: "Everyday he shows me what true strength is." Just yesterday, Talia admitted that she had been "struggling" and "crying a lot" after a tough week. On Saturday, Talia told her followers that Oakley had to have surgery again to find out why his cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was leaking.
