A family is currently fundraising to send their child abroad for life-changing surgery after he "started to deteriorate."
Mum Rebbecca Jones, 43, from Greasby, is currently fighting to get her son the life-changing surgery he needs with his condition deteriorating for the past six years. Her son Joseph, now 12, was a gastroschisis baby, meaning he was born with his bowels on the outside of his stomach.
His condition presented him with potentially life-endangering problems from the day of his birth. However after essential surgery which saw much of his bowels removed, Joseph grew to be a "normal toddler" with "chubby cheeks," who was able to eat properly and go to nursery.
