Katie has faced a barrage of hatred directed towards her son over the course of her career, despite the fact he suffers from a whole host of disabilities.
Taking to her Instagram page on Monday, Katie hit back at the cruel jibes, posting a picture of Harvey’s numerous diagnoses.
‘People keep picking on Harvey about his weight and speech’ wrote the star.
‘Give him a break jeez so you know this is Diagnoses so if you sick people still want to pick on him you need mental help yourselves.’
In the first picture, a list of Harvey’s problems can be seen sent from Great Ormond Street Hospital.
It lists:
-
Septo-optic dysplasia.
-
Autistic behaviour.
-
Significant weight gain related to septa-optic dysplasia.
-
Learning difficulties.
-
Visual impairment.
-
Aggressive behaviour.
In another image shared moments later, Katie revealed Harvey also suffers from:
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Autism Spectrum Disorder
Oppositional Defiant Disorder
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Tic Disorder
Septic Optic Dysplasia
Panhypothyrodism
Prader-Willi
Hypercusis
‘Here is the rest of harvey’s diagnoses so leave my son alone’ Katie captioned the snap.
Price’s fans were quick to commend the dedicated mum of five, who has spoken candidly about her worries for Harvey in the future.
One commenter wrote: ‘Katie you are an awesome mum. Bleep the doubters love. I have a son with Aspergers and its hard work…I applaud you and others blessed with children like this. Don’t lose faith in your ability as a mum. Take care.’
