Leeds couple both diagnosed with same cancer but one came off much better thanks to new treatment

A Leeds couple's lives have been changed by an ongoing bowel cancer trial.

They have both faced the same life-threatening cancer diagnosis but they now lead very different lives. The trial has already had life changing implications for husband and wife Judy Hatton and Trevor Thewlis, from Cookridge.
