A midlands mum says she's tracked down the only doctor in Europe who can save her son's life.
An avid cyclist, Conor Burke from Athlone began feeling unwell at the age of 17.
In the five years since then, he's been diagnosed with a number of conditions, including EDS, which affects his connective tissue and has left him in a wheelchair.
