Gary Ablett's infant son rushed to hospital

The three-year-old son of AFL legend Gary Ablett and his wife Jordan has been rushed to hospital suffering yet another health scare.

Shortly after the family returned from holidaying on the Gold Coast, respiratory issues struck and little Levi was quickly admitted.

Jordan provided an update on their “little champ's” health, noting he was slowly improving.

“Not the return we anticipated,’’ she wrote.

“Little man was taken to hospital yesterday morning after almost 3 weeks of struggling to fight something. Turns out his little body has been hit with TWO respiratory illnesses at the one time. He’s been resting up and is being cared for by amazing doctors. He had a great night sleep (not poor dad though) and is doing better. Our little champ!”

Jordan is a proud mother who has repeatedly spoken of the joy Levi has brought into the couple’s lives, despite him being diagnosed with a rare degenerative disease.

“It’s really difficult from a practical point of view but also really difficult just being his mum and not being able to hear his voice or know what he needs,” she has previously mentioned.

“When he gets upset, I have to guess what the problem is. It’s also difficult because I’d love to just hear his thoughts, have conversation with my boy and for us to know he understands how much we love him.”

Jordan has revealed she still carries the regret of not having her son medically assessed before the moment she knew something was wrong in March 2020.
