A woman who said final goodbyes to her sick son five times is overjoyed after hearing him call her 'mum' for the first time in eight months.
Georgia Eaton was repeatedly told that her teenage son wasn't going to 'make it' after he was diagnosed with a rare auto immune disease that causes inflammation of the brain and intense spasms. After more than six months of fighting for his life, James, 14, is finally on the mend after a board of doctors approved a steroid treatment - never before trialled on children.
James first became unwell with a high temperature and bursts of dizziness in December 2021. Just weeks later after visiting his GP, in January, Georgia walked into James' room to find him bleeding from the mouth with 'blue lips and vacant eyes'.
