Yɛs, sɔm sik dɛn kin mek bak di pikin nɔ rich 18 ia yet.

• Sɔm sik dɛn we nɔ de mɛn, lɛk dayabitis , sistik fibrosis , kidni sik, ɔ asma, kin mek pɔsin nɔ ebul fɔ bɔn yet. Dɛn tin ya kin afɛkt di we aw dɛn de gro. Bɔt if dɛn trit dɛn sik ya fayn fayn wan ɛn manej dɛn fayn fayn wan, dɛn kin ɛp fɔ ridyus di risk fɔ delay fɔ bɔn pikin .

Bɔy pikin dɛn we gɛt dis sik kin lɔng pas dɛn ej, dɛn kin gɛt prɔblɛm wit dɛn lanin, ɛn dɛn kin gɛt ɔda wɛlbɔdi prɔblɛm dɛn bak.

Bɔrku rizin kin de fɔ dis, na dat mek i impɔtant fɔ go to dɔktɔ fɔ no di rayt rizin.

Aw dɛn kin no se pɔsin dɔn delay fɔ bɔn pikin?

Di gud nyus na dat, if prɔblɛm de, bɔku tɛm dɔktɔ dɛn kin ɛp yɔŋ pikin dɛn we de te fɔ bɔn pikin ɛn mek dɛn divɛlɔp bak di rayt we. If yu ɔ yu pikin gɛt ɛnitin fɔ wɔri bɔt dis, mek shɔ se yu mek apɔntinmɛnt wit yu dɔktɔ. Di dɔktɔ go:

Aw dɛn kin trit dis?

Bɔku tɛm, dɔktɔ dɛn nɔ kin ebul fɔ fɛn ɛni prɔblɛm we de ɔnda di bɔdi. Bɔku yɔŋ pipul dɛn we kin delay fɔ bɔn pikin jɔs de divɛlɔp smɔl leta pas aw dɛn kin du am. Dɛn kin kech ɔda pipul dɛn di rayt tɛm. Bɔt if dɔktɔ dɛn si prɔblɛm, dɛn kin rifer yu to pikin dɛn ɛndokrinɔlɔjis — dɔktɔ we spɛshal fɔ trit pikin ɛn yɔŋ pipul dɛn we gɛt prɔblɛm wit aw dɛn de gro — ɔ to ɔda spɛshal pɔsin fɔ mek dɛn du mɔ tɛst ɔ tritmɛnt. Fɔ sɔm "let bloomers," dɔktɔ dɛn kin gi ɔmon tritmɛnt bak:
