A father-of-four from the UK is on life support in Mexico after collapsing in his hotel room on the day he was due to fly back home with his family.
Paul McKenna was set to fly home last Sunday (August 21) with his wife, Amy, children and parents-in-law, but the 33-year-old suffered a suspected seizure and hit his head on the floor. He has since been transferred between three hospitals and is believed to have suffered either a brain haemorrhage or a stroke, with him currently in an induced coma and on life support.
The electrician from Bootle, Merseyside, is now stranded an hour outside of Cancun, with his close friends organising a fundraiser to raise money to pay for medical bills and accommodation for the family, who are currently looking to rent somewhere more permanent while he recovers in hospital. The family say that his travel insurance does not cover his current condition.
