Mom tricked family into believing her son, 7, had incurable disease 'so she could rake in thousands of dollars'

A mother who said her seven-year-old son had been diagnosed with an incurable disease was lying to rake in donations, her family has claimed.

Johnette Nation, from Oglethorpe County, Georgia, told friends and family - and the boy himself - that Nathan Leggett had just two months to live.

Claiming he was suffering from equine encephalitis - an inflammation of the brain and spinal cord - Nation asked for donations to fund treatment.
