A MUM from South Tyneside is aiming to raise ?2,000 to help her baby son overcome a medical condition.
Gemma Robson?s six-month-old son, Zac, suffers from plagiocephaly ? flat head syndrome.
The youngster developed the condition after being born with a weak neck muscle, which meant he couldn?t turn his head to the right.
As babies have soft skulls when first born, the muscle problem led to Zac?s head becoming flattened on the right side.
Gemma and her partner, Steven Amos, 32, a block paver, from Cleadon Park, South Shields, are now hoping to raise the cash to buy Zac a special helmet, which will help mould his head back into shape.
