…By Judah Olanisebee for TDPel Media. British Man Fights for Life After Falling from Hotel Balcony: Undiagnosed Pneumonia Blamed
Dan Boyle, a 31-year-old British holidaymaker, is in critical condition after falling 30ft from a hotel balcony in Lanzarote.
According to his girlfriend, Ashleigh Lomas, Dan fell over the balcony wall on the third floor due to undiagnosed pneumonia.
Another holidaymaker performed CPR on him immediately, and he was rushed to a hospital on the Spanish island.
Doctors reportedly discovered the pneumonia during their examination, believing that fluid in his lungs from the chest infection caused his heart to stop and led to the fall.
The fall resulted in severe injuries for Dan, including a fractured skull, fractured breast bone, torn kidney, and broken ribs.
He was transferred to a hospital in Gran Canaria, where he underwent brain surgery, kidney surgery, and was placed in an induced coma for four weeks.
Ashleigh, Dan’s girlfriend, expresses her desire for him to return home to their children, Daisy (8) and Daniel (3).
