Opening up in a moving post on Instagram, Talia said it had been the "worst week" but that Oakley was "the strongest child". She also asked fans for their prayers amid the tot's health battle. "I'm not going to lie this week has been the worst week of my life," she said.
"To watch my son be intubated, 2 surgeries in a matter of days, fighting sepsis, drain in his back, leaking fluid from his head, fluid resuscitation, blood transfusions, I am struggling here." Talia - who is also mum to sons I really hope you guys can keep him in your prayers." "We are waiting for the surgeon to make a plan he had another leak from the head again yesterday, which shouldn't be happening," she went on.
"I've cried, I've screamed, I've shut myself away...
I love you son." Talia had previously shared a photo showing her and Oakley as they headed off for his surgery. Posted on Instagram, it showed Talia holding her son with a pile of bags around them.
"Off to Liverpool," she wrote. "Let’s do this baby! Operation 9. "I appreciate social media so much on times like this.
