Here's one documented case of an 8 year old girl from last year, and it took about 6 days of bleeding before she was pronounced brain dead...

I can't quite find the much older story of the 3 year old toddler though, but it was essentially the same thing, and took about a week of health decline before he passed. Nobody knew the toddler was swallowing the blood until the autopsy ☹️
