After the unusual symptom appeared, gran-of-seven Lucille Bone was sent for a scan which revealed she was suffering from incurable stage four cancer.
A grieving Scots son has told how his mother was diagnosed with a deadly brain tumour after she suddenly began slurring her words. Colin Bone, from Gullane, East Lothian, was left heartbroken after medics discovered a mass on Lucille’s brain following a scan in 2018.
"Following this devastating diagnosis, mum was given amazing medication from the Western General Hospital in Edinburgh, which helped her lead a very normal life for a few years." However, due to Covid-19, Colin had to defer it to 2023. The runner added: "Very sadly, mum won't be here this year to cheer me on at the finish line, but I am keeping my promise to her regardless.
Brain Tumour Research is providing its runners with a package of support in the lead up to the event, including help from running coaches and access to a participants Facebook Group.
