Heartbreaking story of influencer's baby who has been in a coma for 100 hours… as desperate family ask their followers for help
An Australian influencer has revealed that her one-year-old daughter has been in a comatose state in hospital for more than 100 hours.
Allanah Harris and husband Brock run popular The Harris Family TikTok page, which documents the lives of their four children for more than one million followers.
Allanah and Brock share one-year-old daughter Daisy as well as James, seven, Chase, three, and Ellie, two.
Daisy lives with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) - a rare genetic disease that causes non-cancerous tumours to grow in the brain and on other vital organs.
Since Daisy was six months old, she had been suffering from multiple seizures every day and in June the couple discovered that TSC was the cause.
Taking to Instagram on Sunday, Allanah shared a heartbreaking update on her baby girl, revealing that she had been comatose for more than 100 hours - with doctors scrambling to find the cause.
Allanah shared two photos, one of her hand comforting Daisy's bandaged arm, and a portrait picture of her daughter.
'Daisy was once a bright and bubbly little girl that has recently taken an unfortunate turn and has now put herself in what appears to be a comatose state for over 100 hours,' Allanah revealed in the extensive post.

'Unfortunately there aren't any medications or stimulants that are safe for Daisy to have to help her wake. Daisy has encountered countless needles/blood tests while "asleep" and doesn't so much as bat an eyelid.'
Allanah explained that Daisy, who also suffers from focal cortical dysplasia, epilepsy, infantile spasms, and encephalopathy, was first diagnosed with TSC in June last year, on the same day her first child Lily, who was stillborn, died in 2020.
She added that the reasons behind Daisy's current comatose state remain a mystery.

'But on-top of that the doctors are still bending over backwards trying to understand why Daisy decides to completely shut down with no response and put herself into a comatose state,' Allanah wrote.
'All medical evidence so far shows that Daisy should be awake and well, with of course the exception of her severe developmental delays. but sadly that isn't the case.
'Investigations are taking place and information regarding Daisy has been expedited to other hospitals around not only AUS but other counties to help find answers.'
A GoFundMe has been set up by Brock and Daisy's grandmother Karen to help cover the cost of Daisy's ongoing treatment and has raised more than $22,000.

Finishing her heartbreaking post, Allanah urged her followers to donate to the campaign.
'Daisy has been unresponsive for over 100 hours now and we have no idea when she will choose to wake herself up. This could be tomorrow but it could also be in 6 weeks, but it's something that's only safe for her to do herself when she's ready,' she said.
'Even after Daisy decides to wake we will still have the long journey of trying to figure out what is causing this level of sleep and slow brain activity.
'I never ever EVER, thought it would come to this but we have linked the gofundme in our bio. Even as little as $1 would be the absolute world to us.'
