A tot born with a rare mutation which causes his foot to 'grow uncontrollably' has defied the odds to take his first steps after being told he'd never walk.
Axel Horgan, two, was born with genetic condition congenital lipomatous overgrowth (CLOVES) - which can result in vascular, spinal, skin, bone or joint abnormalities.
He is one of just 200 people in the world with the condition.
Axel's left leg was "very large from birth" and has been growing ever since.
