Chloe's story – brain tumour
In May 2020, mum-of-three Chloe had a seizure at home and fell down the stairs. She was rushed to hospital and doctors discovered a tumour in her brain. She was diagnosed with stage 4 glioblastoma brain tumour.
"I was just absolutely devastated. The tumour was pushing onto my nerves and affected my speech and the muscles in my face. My memory is still really affected."
Due to Chloe's treatment, her daughters have had to quickly grow up and help with her care. Lola, Isabelle and Blossom help around the house, as well as supporting their mum with day-to-day tasks like walking and going to the toilet.
Chloe’s cancer returned in 2022 and she had further surgery followed by chemotherapy again. Sadly, she passed away in May 2023.
