Encephalitis and Bereavement Shared by Parents, Louise and Richard — Henry’s Story
On World Encephalitis Day 2024, parents Louise and Richard shared Henry’s story:
Henry sadly passed away from encephalitis in 2019—just days before his 9th birthday.
Henry experienced a rapid onset of symptoms which led to a week in hospital, several tests and, ultimately, surgery. Unfortunately, his encephalitis diagnosis came after he passed away.
