Mother pleads for op for MRSA son
The mother of a disabled boy who has battled against MRSA twice is pleading with doctors to give him the chance of a better life. Angela Wilson says her son, David Strickland, is being treated worse than "an animal" as he waits for a decision to be made about whether he can undergo potentially life- changing surgery.He has spastic quadriplegia cerebral palsy. This means he cannot control his arms and legs, pick things up, walk, roll, sit unaided or talk. He is also blind. Many children with the condition do not live beyond early childhood but David, with the help of his mother, has fought for life. His twin brother died soon after birth and Mrs Wilson has tried her hardest to extend David's life through dedicated care.
