Kayden Traynor, from Edinburgh, was active and healthy when he began suffering from memory loss, seizures and his mobility skills and eyesight began to deteriorate.

Nicola Sturgeon announces Scottish independence referendum will take place on October 19 2023
Nicola Sturgeon has announced a second referendum on Scottish independence will take place on October 19 next year - but only if judges declare it to be legal.
The First Minister told MSPs her party would fight the next general election on the single issue of ending the Union if the UK Supreme Court blocked her plans.
The SNP leader insisted that any vote on independence must be able to withstand a legal challenge and ruled out holding a so-called wildcat referendum.
Queen makes surprise arrival at Edinburgh Waverley as train passengers stunned

Scots dad ordered to demolish DIY sunroom or face £50,000 fine despite no neighbour complaints
A Scots couple have been warned they face a whopping £50,000 fine if they fail to demolish their DIY sunroom and garage - despite receiving no complaints from neighbours.
James Bevis and his partner Louise were told they needed planning permission from Midlothian Council for the structure, which they built four years ago.
The 52-year-old dad forked out £3,000 and erected the sunroom himself, as a space for the couple’s teenage daughters to spend time with their pals. But planners from the local authority say the building has been placed too far forward from the front of their home in Mayfield, Dalkeith.
