Kobi Crolla, a toddler with severe brain damage, has spent most of his life in the hospital, undergoing numerous surgeries and battling health challenges. His mother, Kirsty Grandison, documents their journey on TikTok to support and connect with other parents with sick children. Despite the challenges, Kirsty aims to provide hope and raise awareness about life in a sick kids' unit while caring for Kobi full-time. The family hopes to bring Kobi home for Christmas, away from the hospital environment, with support from the Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity.
