A FATHER and son who nearly died in a horrible motorway crash want to find and thank the good Samaritans who saved their lives. Gary Fordham suddenly had a seizure while driving home along the M6 with his then-11-year-old son Hayden and their dog Buster at 2pm on New Year s Eve 2018. He later found out that this was because of a previously-undiscovered brain tumour. Gary lost control of the Mercedes van which veered off the northbound carriageway of the M6 and flipped on its side as it hit a verge, ending up on the hard shoulder facing oncoming traffic between junctions 15 and 16.
