Heartbreak of little girl who dreamed of walking hand-in-hand with her identical twin sister after NHS refuses to fund life-changing £30,000 surgery
Jasmine Moxom, 3, (left in both photos) was born with spastic diplegia, a form of cerebral palsy, which affects her lower limbs and means she struggles to walk (right).
She had scans and X-rays before being referred to Bristol Hospital to prepare for surgery. But hopes of running around with twin Summer (right) are in doubt now the NHS said it could not fund it. Her parents Sally Morton and Ricky Moxom are furious after being told they will have to raise the £30,000 themselves. Ms Morton said: 'The NHS need to realise they can't go promising children one thing and then take it away without a care, it's disgusting.'
