 TRAGIC tot Luke Winston-Jones' family last night offered to pay for nurses to look after him, in a bid to avert High Court action to decide his fate. Judges will be asked next week to rule if the baby, born with three holes in his heart and a rare genetic illness, can be given life-saving treatment as his condition worsens. North West Wales NHS Trust, responsible for Ysbyty Gwynedd at Bangor, made the application on Wednesday jointly with Royal Liverpool Children's NHS Trust, which runs Alder Hey Hospital. The nine-month-old's mum Ruth, from Holyhead, last night claimed Alder Hey would withdraw from the application if Luke returned to Ysbyty Gwynedd. The North Wales hospital says it no longer has the specialist nursing staff required to treat him. Luke's aunt, Jacqui Kirkwood, said: "We have offered to pay for nursing staff and recruitment, and pay out of the appeal fund, so Alder Hey's case can stop. "If Ysbyty Gwynedd would have Luke back all this would stop. But they have refused to have Luke back. Every excuse they have come up with, we have had a very good answer. "All Luke needs is a bit of peace to get on with his life." |
