A father-of-three paralysed from head to toe suffering locked-in syndrome has pleaded to be allowed to go home by using his eyes to spell out words.

Darren Leith, 50, can only communicate using his eyes after being left “buried alive” by an ultra-rare condition following a devastating stroke.

Former painter and decorator Darren is effectively locked inside his own body. He knows what is going on around him - able to think, reason and feel - but is unable to move.
