A keen cyclist who suffered a heart attack while on a riding holiday in France is stuck in hospital unable to get back home to the UK, leaving his daughter who relies on him devastated. Anthony Morris was involved in a horror crash while on a cycling holiday on August 24 and has been in a Brittany hospital ever since.
His devastated daughter Charlotte Morris has told of her anguish at being without her father, whom she relies on as a carer as she has autism. Charlotte lost her mother in a house fire when she was just eight weeks old and says her dad is the only family she has, DerbyshireLive reports.
As well as a heart attack, 63-year-old Anthony, from Allenton in Derby, also suffered a bleed on the brain and Charlotte said his weeks in hospital have also started to affect his mental health. She is desperate to get her dad back to the UK so he can go to the Royal Derby Hospital for heart surgery and then start his recovery at home with her and their cats.
