A loving husband is on a mission to raise £40,000 to help save his "beautiful soul" wife.
Mum-of-two Heather Ashton, 39, has multiple health conditions including Crohn's disease, fibromyalgia, and depression. And at age 37, she was diagnosed with stage four bowel cancer, which had metastasised to her liver with more than 20 tumours, her husband said.
The family's battle sadly grew worse when the "kindest" mum to Finlay, 10, and Elliott, 7, discovered her cancer is terminal. Her partner Mark Ashton said: "After a fortnight of various scans and meetings with surgeons and oncologists, they seemed to deliver a continual stream of bad news. It progressively worsened – the cancer is terminal, it’s inoperable, the outlook is not good."
