A woman shipped to nuclear testing grounds as a baby by the Ministry of Defence fears she developed a deadly brain condition as a result of radiation.
As the last survivor of her family, Liz Burridge, 66, is asking for the nuclear veterans medal to be sped up so she can collect it on behalf of her dad before it is too late.
She was a newborn when dad Peter, an army engineer, was ordered to Christmas Island in the South Pacific to take part in a series of weapons tests at the height of the Cold War.
