A beloved father-of-two has been left paralysed after he slipped on ice during a routine walk home, just weeks after he beat a devastating cancer diagnosis.
59-year-old Neil Tracey from Doncaster was walking home following England's World Cup quarter final fixture with France (December 10), when he slipped on ice formed through the UK's freezing temperatures.
He has since been left paralysed with no ability to move whatsoever, and will remain in hospital for a three-month period where he will undertake vigorous bouts of rehabilitation.
