An employee at Lidl was hit with the devastating news that she had eight weeks to live after she was sent home from work with a backache - which turned out to be cancer.
Christine Emery was experiencing severe pains in her back before she went to the doctor for a check-up and was signed off work for a week.
The mum, from Warrington, was initially told the crippling pain was due to arthritis or gallstones. It was only when Christine visited a fourth professional that an alarm was raised.
