'Beautiful' boy unable to walk, talk or eat after mum found him face down in cot

A "beautiful" boy has been unable to walk, talk or eat after he was found unresponsive in his cot. Carter Daley was found face down by his mum, Alisha, on April 12.

The 17-month-old, from Sale, has gone from a happy healthy boy who 'lit up a room with his smile' to acting like a 'newborn baby'. Doctors are unable to explain the mystery illness and cannot say whether Carter will ever recover.

His family now face a race against time to raise £30,000 for treatment to save him from permanent brain damage. Carter's gran, Louise Cowman has launched a GoFundMe in a bid to pay for lifeline therapy in America before his second birthday.
