A mum has said she's in a "constant battle" to seep her five-year-old son safe, due to a rare disorder which causes him to crave wall coverings and skirting boards instead of food.
Caitlyn McLaughlins says her son Barry has autism, a speech delay, as well as rare 'eating' disorder called Pica - which means he requires special adaptions to his bedroom as she fears he will choke on something he has eaten.
Caitlyn, who lives in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland, has been pleading with her council to carry out the adaptations as she is currently on "constant alert" when Barry is in his bedroom, the Daily Record reports.
