Family of young mum who collapsed on Turkey holiday say she is 'clinically dead'

A young mum of three who collapsed on holiday with swelling on her brain and heart is clinically dead with no chance of recovery, her family has said.

Melissa Kinsella, 30, suffered a seizure while on holiday with partner Jay Smith and their three children, Chloe, nine, Beau, four and two-year-old Romi. She had been due to fly home on Monday May 15 but was rushed to hospital after collapsing in the airport.

The mum, from Moreton in Merseyside, was put on a ventilator and a crowdfunding campaign to get her back to the UK raised enough to repatriate her. But following some initially hopeful updates her family has confirmed she will not recover, the Liverpool Echo reports.
