Family's Tenerife dream holiday turns into nightmare as woman, 39, left screaming in agony and 'abandoned'

A woman hospitalised while on holiday in Spain says she has been forced to miss vital cancer treatment - and is no closer to knowing when she will be able to get back.

Kelly and partner, Andrew Timms, along with her parents Trevor and Leslie Haughton, travelled to Tenerife on a long-overdue break, just before the latest round of Kelly’s cancer treatment began. However, an idyllic getaway has turned into a 'nightmare', after Kelly’s health took a turn for the worse and she was forced to go to hospital on the Spanish island.

Now relying on insurers May Day Assistance to provide an air ambulance to get home, the family have seen one flight cancelled on Friday (August 12). To make matters worse, the rescheduled flight - set to leave today (August 15) - has also been shelved, the Mirror reports.
