A woman suffering from stage four terminal cancer is hoping a fundraiser will give her more time with her two children.
Linsey Farrington initially thought she was having a heart attack after suffering chest pains in April of last year. She had numerous GP and hospital appointments, but despite this she was not diagnosed with cancer. Instead, she was treated for acid reflux.
But the 37-year-old mum-of-two, from Widnes, was devastated to be told this May that she had stomach cancer and that she only had a life expectancy of around 12 months. She is undergoing chemotherapy but if she travels abroad for an alternative treatment it could extend the time she has left.
