A schoolboy has been left in a vegetative state after he flipped off a pier and landed 'face first on the water'.
Jack Dolan, 15, went to the beach for the first time by himself on June 23, and threw himself off Stone Pier in Margate, Kent.
He had done the move dozens of times before, most recently on holiday in Egypt in September, but this time he landed head first on the water.
The impact left Jack essentially brain dead - while his brain stem shows signs of activity and he is breathing for himself, the rest of his brain is severely damaged and he will not recover.
Now, his stepfather Dave Dolan and mother Lisa are desperately fundraising to move house so they can bring Jack home to die.
