This is heartbreaking
A woman from Mansfield has spoken out about her dad’s terminal brain tumour and how his symptoms came on “like a flipped switch”. Amy Bradley’s dad, Michael Bradley, 63, was diagnosed with a glioblastoma in October last year.
“He’d never had anything like that before. Dad was taken to accident and emergency at Chesterfield Royal Hospital where an MRI scan revealed he had tumours on the right-side of his brain.” Both Amy and Megan are planning to raise £10,000 for the charity Brain Tumour Research. On Friday 31 March, they will be taking part in Wear A Hat Day.
Amy said: “We are so grateful to the small businesses and everyone in our local community who have pulled together to support us. Without them, we would not have the fight in us that we do today. Matthew Price, community development manager at Brain Tumour Researc, said: “We’re really grateful to Amy for taking part in Wear A Hat Day as it’s only with the support of people like her that we’re able to progress our research into brain tumours and improve the outcome for patients like Mick who are forced to fight this awful disease.
