A gym-goer has been left only able communicate by blinking after developing a rare neurological condition.
Brit Oli Coppock developed the devastating condition just months after undergoing treatment for a brain tumour and had ‘bounced straight back’ after surgery.
The 32-year-old had previously been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis a year before, later finding out he also had a grade two brain tumour.
However months later tragedy would strike just a couple of months later.
“Everything else is fine – he can still understand everything I can say to him.
“The most upsetting thing is me is that I say to him ‘Oli are you alright’ and he blinks to say yes, that he is OK – even though he isn’t.”

She added: “You wouldn’t think that anything had ever happened to him.
