A 17-year-old college student, who had part of his arms and lower legs amputated due to meningitis, has made an emotional promise to his family. Harvey Phillips has pledged to his family to drive them in his own car to a McDonald's drive thru with an eye-catching registration plate.
Harvey, who is studying sports, is currently learning how to drive his specially-adapted BMW and chose his own personalised registration plate himself to show off his sense of humour. A big Lincoln City FC fan his new registration is engraved with "Up the Imps", although he is still a supporter of the Mariners and a friend of Luke Waterfall, Grimsby Live reports.
At less than one-year-old Harvey contracted meningitis and had to have his lower limbs and part of his arms amputated in emergency surgery. But that has not stopped the brave youngster fulfilling his dreams of representing GB in international swimming events.
