A mum who flew to Turkey for dental implants was rushed to hospital for an emergency 13-hour operation where doctors discovered she had a deadly brain tumour.
Lisa Robinson, 44, travelled alone to the resort city of Antalya, on the Southern coast, last month for a routine consultation about cosmetic procedures. But after she lost her balance and acted like she was “drunk”, her dentist told her to seek immediate medical assistance – and she was then rushed to a nearby hospital.
The mum-of-two said doctors at the clinic initially thought she was “possessed” after her brown eyes turned “blue” and rolled to one side of her head. And when they did an MRI scan, they found a Glioblastoma - an aggressive brain tumour the size of a “clenched fist”- and she was taken for critical 13-hour surgery.
