A dad of four is trying to stay positive after what he thought was food poisoning turned out to be a rare illness which has left him paralysed.
Asam Iqbal, from Keighley, was healthy before he fell ill 11 months ago and ended up being diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), a serious condition which affects the nerves and often starts with symptoms in people’s feet and hands.
His brother Asif said Asam had eaten little with apparent food poisoning, so they thought he was just weak when he fell out of bed and couldn't get up.
