Coronation Street’s Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) and Nick Tilsley (Ben Price) have been struggling to connect as she fears her baby son Oliver is going to die.
Leanne is set to contact a hospital in Germany which claims they can treat Oliver, but she downplays his severe symptoms.
However, it looks like it is going to be too little too late as the doctors will suggest turning off Oliver’s life support machine, infuriating Leanne as she accuses them of giving up.
The doctor explains that Oliver’s seizures are getting out of control and life support is the only thing keeping the youngster alive.

After Leanne and Steve’s hopes are raised by the thought of a second opinion, they’re soon shattered when they’re told Oliver will never be able to breathe unaided and that it’s time to talk about switching off his life support.
Leanne then seeks help from a hospital in Germany, who ask for £500,000 for a potential treatment, but Steve is worried when Leanne hides Oliver’s symptoms from the doctor.
