GEORDIE Shore star Aaron Chalmers has revealed his son has woken from his coma and is breathing on his own for the first time in days after catching a deadly infection. Their youngest Oakley "isn't out of the woods yet" but has turned a positive corner in his terrifying health ordeal. The sweet tot was admitted to hospital for a booked operation last week.

But his health deteriorated hours after the op and he was rushed to surgery to drain fluids from his brain. He needed a tube to breath and was placed in an induced coma. Aaron said: "I swear to god seeing him without the bandage on, he looks amazing.



"He has been so swollen with the infection it hasn't looked like him. But he's 100% on the right path. "I feel like there is a weight lifted.

I'm hoping and praying that's the worst over." Worried Aaron and Talia, 32, have updated their followers every day and asked fans for prayers. Tonight, Talia revealed Oakley had opened his eyes and she was allowed to hold him for the first time in days.

She said: "Three operations my boy is awake and doing amazing. "My heart could burst with pride. Son you are the meaning of strength.

Thank you to everyone who had wished for Oakley. "Lets get on the road to recovery baby. Im sharing our journey as a family and to raise awareness.

" Oakley was born with the rare genetic disorder Apert Syndrome . Children diagnosed are born with bones in the skull and face that have fused and do not grow in proportion, according to Great Ormond Street Hospit.
