A devoted couple who both had bowel cancer have been given more time together after being operated on by the same surgeon using robot arms.
When a routine check up in February 2020 revealed that Alan Jenkins, 58, had bowel cancer, neither he nor his wife Linda, 73, ever expected that she, too, would be diagnosed with the same disease just a year later.
But the pair – who met 30 years ago at a taxi rank – are now looking forward to a bright future together.
