A 24-year-old man was told that he had just six months to live when doctors found a tennis ball-sized tumour on his brain after he went to A&E complaining of double vision and loss of movement in his left side. Ashley Terry had been experiencing strange symptoms in the months leading up to his hospital visit, but he “brushed them to one side”.
Ashley, from Buckley in Flintshire, North Wales, first noticed things were not quite right in 2020 during the first lockdown. He had issues with his balance, eyesight, hearing, speech and energy levels, which he downplayed at first.
It was only when his then girlfriend, and now wife Hannah, insisted he go to A&E in August 2020 after he lost movement in his left side that the true cause of his health concerns was discovered. Doctors said Ashely would only have six months to live if he didn’t receive treatment, WalesOnline reports.
