The mum of a Lanarkshire schoolboy who died from brain cancer has paid tribute to her 'happy and selfless' boy.
Fraser McAllister was diagnosed with an anaplastic glioneuronal tumour, a rare form of the cruel disease, in 2020. The tragic diagnosis came after the teenager first started getting headaches back in 2018 where he 'felt like his head was going to blow up'.
The 18-year-old spoke out earlier this year on a drug used to treat patients like him which can’t be accessed in the UK - he travelled to Paris for it. The late Hamilton College pupil also endured three surgeries; one where a drain was put into his head, another remove the tumour and a third to have a tracheostomy (incision in the windpipe) fitted.
