A Scots man has been left with nearly £1 million in medical bills after forgetting to update his records when he booked a last last-minute flight to help his sick granddaughter.
Hugh Drysdale, 67, said changing his medical status was the last thing on his mind when he booked the emergency trip from Aberdeen to Florida earlier this year.
The grandad , from Newtonhill, Aberdeenshire, made the quick dash to be with five-year-old Kyla Gould, who has been battling an aggressive brain tumour since August 2021.
