Brave toddler fights back.
(From The Journal)
Byline: Neil McKay
A COMMUNITY is rallying forth to help a brave toddler struck down by the deadly brain bug meningitis.
Robbie Jones, aged two, from Bowburn, near Durham City, was rushed to hospital in July.
As a result of the meningitis, doctors had to amputate his legs, the right, above the knee, and the left, below. Robbie also lost the ends of his fingers.
But the youngster is refusing to let his disabilities hamper him, as he crawls energetically around the floor in pursuit of his four-year-old sister Abbie.
And his parents, Wayne and Jill, of Millford Way, Bowburn, have been "overwhelmed" by the support of people from Durham and surrounding areas.
