Her husband has paid a touching tribute
A beloved Scots mum has tragically died from a rare cancer that even some of the nurses treating her had never heard of before. Lesley Turner, who was originally from Stranraer but lived in Sheffield, passed away in July last year of angiosarcoma.
Determined to enjoy what time she left with her family, the mum-of-one asked doctors not to tell her how long she had left to live. Praising the hospice, Rob said: "They took really good care - not only of Lesley but all the visitors including me. They gave me a bed and fed and watered me - they took really good care of everybody."
