'I just want to dissolve into tears'

A South African grandmother who is facing deportation from the UK says it makes her feel like she "just wants to dissolve into tears".

Myrtle Cothill, 92, is due to be deported but the 91热爆 Office has halted moves while awaiting new medical reports.

However no permanent decision has been made and she feels the stress of the situation is "killing" her.

She is cared for by her daughter, Mary Wills, who would not be able to come with her to South Africa.

Joanna Gosling spoke to her, her daughter and her barrister Jan Doerfel.
