A mum-of-two has been given 14 months to live, after a shocking bowel cancer diagnosis. Alex Jamieson was rushed to hospital after she started getting severe pains and after an emergency operation, surgeons discovered the truth.
As they went to remove part of her bowel, they found a tumour – but the worst was yet to come. “It was a huge shock,” Alex, from the Davenport area of Stockport, told the Manchester Evening News.
“They took us into a room and I assumed they were going to tell me I could go home as I’d been there a few weeks recovering. They told me it was bowel cancer.
