A Greater Toronto Area mother is hoping to raise public awareness about a disease that is rarely transmitted by mosquitos. Her child was hospitalized for more than a month after getting a mosquito bite.

Kathryn McKissock never thought letting her six-year-old son play outside their Oshawa, Ont., home could lead to him developing a life-threatening disease.

McKissock tells Global News she noticed a mosquito bite on her son, Cameron, after Canada Day. She says they didn’t look out of the ordinary, but soon after, he developed a fever and she noticed he was becoming very lethargic. As Brittany Rosen reports, his condition was worsening as the days passed.
