A Co Antrim mum has opened up about the impact rising costs will have on disabled families this Christmas.
Josephine Armstrong from Ballyclare says her family's own Christmas celebrations are cancelled due to the financial pressures of looking after her daughter, who has mitochondrial disease.
Josephine's six-year-old daughter Paige has mitochondrial disease, a rare genetic condition. Because of this, she is often in and out of hospital - trips her dad, Mark, accompanies her on, while mum stays at home and cares for her other children.
