A heartbroken mother has described her devastation after being told doctors feared the worst and thought her son was "going to die" after an accident while on holiday.
Steph Burke flew out to see her son, 15-year-old Liam Staniforth-Burke, after he suffered serious injuries when he fell through a glass door in a hotel in Turkey while on holiday. The boy, from Hattersley, suffered severe cuts to his neck, stomach, hip and hands and he remains in hospital in Antalya.
The accident has left Liam with probable life changing injuries with his family in a race against time to secure the money for an operation. When his 34-year-old mum saw Liam, who was on a holiday with family friends, there were fears Liam would die of his injuries but he has since pulled through.
