A family from County Durham has been left devastated after a mum-of-three who is battling cancer was given just months left to live.
Emma Hardman, 41, from Stanley was diagnosed with breast cancer six months ago after finding a lump but was tragically told the cancer had spread.
Doctors told the family the cancer had spread to her spinal cord and brain fluid and on February 9 was told she had just months left to live.
