Facebook cry for help saves man

hHelp me ... Peter Casaru called for help over Facebook

A DAD who woke up paralysed has Facebook to

 thank after friends 6,000 miles away in America

 read his cry for help and dispatched paramedics

 to rescue him.

His name is Peter, 59, had woken up unable to move his legs at his 
remote cottage. He could not call for an ambulance himself
 because his mobile phone's battery was dead.
That's when he turned to his laptop which was only 10ft away.
It took him an hour and a half to reach it because he was virtually paralysed but managed to type out a message before collapsing on the floor.
He wrote: "Can someone call 999, Ambulance for me, I need one now ...
"I have fractued my back. dtuck ob floor. no phone abd glasses, toucvh typing.. please help me."
