The family of a 33 year-old "doting father" who fell seriously ill abroad are desperately trying to raise money to help bring him home.
Graeme McNeill, from Livingston, suffered a brain haemorrhage on 16 March, while in Prague for the weekend with friends. He remains in a coma after two emergency operations to relieve the pressure on his brain.
However those closest to him want him home so he can be close to his daughter Brooke and the rest of his family and friends as he fights for his life.
They have also expressed concern at the care he is receiving overseas and, due to a dispute with insurance are trying to raise £30,000 themselves to bring him home to the UK.

As his condition is still critical they say he would need a specially equipped air ambulance for the trip, and he would need to be accompanied by a full medical team.
So far the appeal has raised more than £20,000 with West Lothian Council and Livingston MP Hannah Bardell among those sharing the appeal.
A statement from Graeme's family was issued on the Go Fund Me page, and they posted about the care he was receiving.
They say that after surgery he was transferred to the General Hospital in Prague which they believe "is not up to the same standards as hospitals in the UK".
They continued: "The language barrier has led his family to be unaware of many of the complications surrounding Graeme's condition, even though we have all been by his bedside the whole time.
"At the moment, although Graeme had covered himself with insurance, the insurance are not co-operating well with the family in regards to accepting liability in funding his repatriation home."

In addition to the money raised being used to bring the father home, they say it will also be used to help with his rehabilitation afterwards.
His family add that Graeme, a Network Rail engineer, is a "fit and healthy guy who absolutely dotes on his daughter". They say that she is his reason to fight through this.
MP Ms Bardell shared the family's appeal on social media, adding: "Do please help if you can, this poor family really needs your support."
