‘Against all odds she hung on in there’

Spencer penned a lengthy caption to accompany the heartwarming post.

We were told on more than one occasion that there was little hope.

“Seven months ago our mum was involved in a freak accident which left her fighting for her life…,” he wrote.

“We were told on more than one occasion that there was little hope if any but against all odds she hung on in there and thanks to the two heroic surgeons in the third pic and countless others at @chelwestft she left hospital today after 218 days on the ward,” he then continued.

“The staff labelled her a minor miracle but they are the miracle workers. My family are eternally grateful for their incredible work. Never give up,” he then added.

Plenty of Spencer’s took to the comment section to gush over the amazing news.

“The best news,” GMB host Susanna Reid commented.

“Buzzing for you all,” Gary Lineker’s son, George, gushed.

“Sending love and thoughts,” Claire Sweeney then added.
