Mum needs to raise thousands to fly baby born early back to UK

A mum desperately needs to raise thousands of pounds to bring her baby back to the UK after she was born two months prematurely in Turkey.

Kaielle Thompson, 23, from Greater Manchester, was celebrating her birthday on holiday when she gave birth to baby Kaiah on May 17. She had to be delivered by emergency caesarean section in Fethiye where Kaiah was rushed straight to another hospital three hours away and admitted to a newborn intensive care unit, Manchester Evening News reported.

Kaielle and her partner had to move to a hotel near the hospital after she had recovered from the birth and are having to pay hundreds of pounds to extend their stay. The couple has also been billed at least £27,000 for Kaiah's hospital care and were 'hounded' about paying the bill.
