A terminally ill Perth mum who travelled across the country with her son to hear Coldplay perform a song sentimental to them both is stranded 4000km from home after she wound up in hospital. Kim Stevens-Miller was struck down with gastro and mesenteric venous thrombosis, causing a dangerous blood clot in her abdomen, and never got to attend Thursday’s concert in Sydney .

Doctors were concerned that operating could rupture the clot and cause a heart attack. She was well enough to be discharged on Sunday, but her journey home will be far more difficult than the trip there. While she had taken out travel insurance, she is not expecting it to be any help given the clotting is likely linked to her cancer.
