Little Alfie, four, was excited about going back to school - but was rushed to hospital the following morning where he was diagnosed with meningococcal septicaemia. He was on life support but at one point they said his heart was functioning on its own. Dani said Alfie's parents have asked to be left to grieve in peace and would rather not be named. For more information about the symptoms, please visit https://www.meningitis.org/meningitis/check-symptoms“We hope to raise funds to support Alfie's mummy and daddy through this immensely difficult time. We hope to be able to cover the cost of the funeral, and to give Alfie's parents a short break afterwards where they can grieve for their son in peace.
