A father is gearing up for a charity marathon to raise awareness of a condition that almost cost his two-year-old son his life.
Nathan Muskett, from Wicklewood, near Wymondham, is in training to run the Paris Marathon next month to raise money for the Norfolk and Norwich District Diabetes UK Youth Group after his son, Henry, was taken into intensive care last year.
Last February, the two-year-old spent two days in intensive care at the James Paget Hospital fighting for his life after his health severely deteriorated. Whilst in hospital he was diagnosed as having Type 1 diabetes - a condition which few people are aware can affect children so young.
