After a seemingly innocent trip to the audiologist for hearing loss, one man was left facing a life changing brain tumour diagnosis. On top of this life-changing news, Stuart Grant soon discovered the cancer treatment would cost him more than he expected - an extra burden at an unwelcome time.
From daily transport to the hospital to potential IVF treatment, Stuart Grant has found himself struggling to cover the hidden cost of cancer.
In January 2019, the now 49-year-old was sent for an MRI which picked up a brain tumour on the right side of his brain - remarkably unrelated to the hearing loss which had sparked the scan. Stuart, from Norfolk, was sent for a craniotomy five months later followed by just under 12 months of intensive radiotherapy and then chemotherapy.
