Six children have died with a Strep A infection this season across England and Wales, and in Liverpool, one young girl is still fighting for her life.
"She just completely changed, she was restless. We shouted some nurses down, and we had to leave the room, they put her to sleep, and she's been on a ventilator ever since, keeping her alive," he added.Since then, Camila has been at Alder Hey Children's Hospital, unresponsive in the critical care unit.
"Everyone's saying prayers for her, hoping for a miracle she lives. She needs to live, she's such a special little girl. I can still hear her singing... it's too much."He is now urging other parents to"look out for the signs" and to act quickly if they see their child is sick.
