Father-of-two, 39, Beats Covid after his wife REFUSED to Allow Doctors to Turn Off His Life-Support Machine as his lungs shut down during three-month battle with Virus
A father whose wife refused to turn off his life support has spoken of his relentless battle to beat
coronavirus.
Adam Banks told how he had to learn to walk, talk and swallow again after being struck down with the disease in January.
The 39-year-old spent three months in hospital - including five weeks in a coma - while doctors fought to save him.
His wife Marie was faced with the agonising decision to stop his treatment as his lungs began to shut down.
'She refused and begged them to come up with another option,' said Mr Banks, who lives in Hutton Rudby in Yorkshire with Marie and their children Chloe, 19 and Taylor, 17.
