Help us to fly our son home
A FAMILY is desperately trying to raise £10,000 so their son can be flown home after he was badly injured in an accident while on holiday.
The young dad had only been in Ibiza for six hours when he fell in a water fountain early on Tuesday morning.
The 20-year-old was taken to hospital for treatment and an MRI scan showed that he had broken two vertebrae, leaving him paralysed from the chest down. It is believed that the blow to the head caused his brain to produce fluid and the resulting pressure travelled down to his spine.
His distraught mum told the local press: ‘We don’t know if it’s permanent yet, as there’s still too much swelling, but whatever happens we need to get him home and find a place for him to recuperate.
He went to the island on a week’s holiday with a group of friends from The Crown pub. He had also taken his 15-month-old son and his girlfriend.
