Behind their brave smiles, the family of little Nathan Peet are facing an agonising situation every single day.
Nathan, aged three, has a rare type of spina bifida and cannot walk. Each day he is attached to a feeding pump. Each night he needs an oxygen machine to keep him breathing.
The gruelling treatment takes its toll – and not just on poor Nathan. Soaring energy bills means his mum Louise, her partner and Nathan’s sister Jess have been pushed to the brink.
