A dad who woke up paralysed has fought back to win first place in a national bodybuilding competition. Dale Wilson, 31, says he was a fit and healthy man - until he woke up next to his heavily pregnant wife and couldn't move his right arm or feel his leg.
He rushed to hospital, where he was told he'd had a neurological episode - which can be a sign of multiple sclerosis. Brave Dale said he felt "helpless", as his wife Hannah, 30, had gone into labour on the same day.
He said he was unable to even lift up a kettle to make Hannah a cup of tea, let alone able to care for newborn Ralph and his brother Noah, then two. Even Dale's speech suffered and he couldn't lift one arm and had to drag a foot while he walked.
