Fit dad thought pain was from running 30km a week but now he has 'days to live'

A "fit and healthy" dad-of-four who went to doctors after suffering stomach pain has been told he only has days to live.

Jonathan Nichols, 45, first started experiencing symptoms back in the summer of 2021. His symptoms seemed to appear out of the blue as he began suffering with stomach aches, fatigue and weight loss. More than a year on from the problems he found out the tragic news he had leukaemia and his treatment wasn't working, MEN reports.

At first Jonathan, who is a keen runner, put his sudden symptoms down to the fact he was running 30k a week. But when his strange symptoms persisted, wife Kimberley urged him to get checked out.
