Lucy, who shares the three-year-old with partner Lewis Devine, feared she was going to lose him as he drifted in and out of consciousness.
In a lengthy post, Lucy – who also has daughter Sienna with her ex Alan Halsall, shared: “Carter was 18 months. He was in the trolley, eating snacks while I was getting tea with sienna, and he suddenly looked at me and I knew something was severely wrong!
“He went grey, his mouth went blue and he started to go all limp. He was struggling to catch his breath. God did my heart sink, I literally grabbed him out of the trolley, abandoned the shopping and sienna and I just ran to my car!
“I strapped him in his car seat (which was awful because at this point he was going in and out of consciousness and his skin was going all mottled , and I couldn’t hold him close as I had to drive to A&E! It was 10 minutes but it felt like a lifetime, my poor sienna was crying in the back asking me if he was going to die.
“I kept trying to reassure her he was fine but I couldn’t stop the tears, I honestly thought we were losing him! I kept talking to him, telling him to stay with us and he was trying god love him! I remember pulling up outside A&E and I just ran into the hospital cradling carter with sienna by my side and screaming “he’s not breathing”.
“The nurses flew out of every door and took my baby out of my arms and took him straight into a private room…. After that it all felt like a blur…. Nurse after nurse came in, drs round him, oxygen mask on, adrenalin in his leg, honestly the room was full of nurses trying to bring him round! It was the most terrifying moment of my life!”
She went on to say how the family now lives with his allergy and they carry an epi-pen everywhere they go.
