A British father is fighting for life in hospital after falling 30ft from a Lanzarote hotel balcony just hours after arriving on holiday
Dan Boyle, 31, fell 30 feet off the balcony on the first night of his holiday with his girlfriend, her sister and her partner in the Canary Islands on April 23.He had pneumonia, although he was unaware of this, and his family believe this caused his heart to stop and his lungs to fill with fluid, leading him to fall over the edge.
Mr Boyle's girlfriend Ashleigh Lomas is fundraising along with his family to get Mr Boyle a specialist flight back to the UK. Their insurance is covering his medical treatment abroad, but not the flight. The father-of-two currently remains in hospital while Ashleigh returned home to Stockport to their children, who were in the care of their grandparents, three days ago.Family friend Toni Albiston has launched a fundraiser to pay for the specialist flight home for Mr Boyle.
