A Leeds man found out he had cancer when he was drinking a cup of coffee.
Train driver Michael, 58, "lived on" coffee before 2021 to help him get through his work shifts. But in July last year he was sipping on his favourite drink when he noticed sharp pains in the back of his throat.
He went for a check up and was told "the worst" - he was diagnosed with throat cancer. He went through three months of "aggressive" treatment. Michael said his job makes him "feel alive" every day, but after his diagnosis he was left unable to walk up a street without feeling tired or experiencing pain.
