Thank you for saving our Caleb

THE dad of a brave tot who lost his eye after doctors spotted a lethal tumour has hailed hero medics for saving him.

Kyle Mackay said he and partner Chloe Collin's "lives stopped" when they were given the news their son Caleb Mackay had a cancerous tumour behind his left eye, just weeks after birth.

Caleb, two, was born with twin brother Carter in August 2021 but eight weeks later Kyle and Chloe knew something wasn't right, with Caleb's left eye drooping.

The family, of East Calder, West Lothian, took Caleb to an eye specialist before he was rushed to the Royal Hospital for Children in Edinburgh.
