A woman has been fighting for her life after botched surgery left her stomach "like concrete".
Pinky Jolley, 45, travelled to Istanbul in Turkey, for a gastric sleeve procedure in November after tipping the scales at 17st 11lbs. UK doctors had confirmed the diabetic should slim down when she piled on the pounds after serious medical complications left her in a wheelchair.
With a dress size of 24, Pinky had launched a fundraiser to "allow her to have a future" after spending four years on NHS waiting lists. She quickly raised over £2,000 and after booking the procedure, flew to Turkey two months later.
