Laura Cayzer noticed her son Lennox was 'floppy' when he was born and immediately knew something was wrong
A mother whose baby was born with a rare condition said her instinct stopped her child from "ending up in a graveyard" after doctors initially just dubbed him as "lazy". Laura Cayzer, 30, and her partner, Anthony Lewis, 31, welcomed their fourth child Lennox into the world on September 3, 2022.
Laura has credited the "firecracker" nurse who saved her son's life as she reveals that her baby made a "miraculous" recovery but he will be left disabled. Laura told the ECHO: "Labour with him was absolutely horrendous and I was induced at 42 weeks. I had to go through every stage of induction because he was not coming out.
Laura said: "As soon as we walked through the door we got a call from the hospital to say a nurse who was watching him saw he stopped breathing and they needed to ventilate him and send him to Alder Hey. We grabbed the first things we could find and rushed back into the taxi. "I remember one night I couldn't sleep and went over to the ward early in the morning and they just let me in to see him. I wasn't able to touch him because he was on a ventilator but I could see him and talk to him."
