A soldier who lost his legs in Afghanistan will no longer get treatment in England – because he’s Scottish.
Callum Brown, 28, still endures horrific pain from injuries caused by a bomb blast six years ago.
But now the former soldier is to lose the treatment and medication he has relied on.
He said yesterday: “I am sitting here without my legs because I fought for this country.
“This is the ultimate slap in the face. I am still in shock and can barely get my head around it.”
Former lance corporal Callum, from Ayr, has been under the care of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham.
The hospital, where he was treated when he was first airlifted home, has dedicated and specialised facilities for military casualties.
But on his last visit, he and wife Laura were stunned to be told he could no longer go there because he doesn’t live in England.
Callum fears the decision could even cost him his life because he will no longer have access to the specialist treatment available at the hospital.
