@cp24breakingnews: A two-year-old Oakville, Ont. boy with Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) was almost transferred to a hospital south of the border in the midst of a provincial shortage of pediatric intensive care beds. “He just was struggling so much to take a breath," Tyler’s mother, Keri Graham, told CTV News Toronto. In response to Tyler’s story, Ontario Health Minister Sylvia Jones said on Thursday, “let's be clear, that patient you're referring to actually did get care here in Ontario.” It was on his third birthday, Oct. 28, that he was discharged and sent home. “That was the first morning we had seen him without oxygen masks,” she added.
