A mum-of-two with severe breast cancer was given just one year to live. But after taking part in a clinical trial with experimental medicines, she has now been miraculously cleared.
When Jasmin David discovered that her cancer had spread to the lungs, lymph nodes and chest bone, she was given the devastating news that she had less than a year to live. The previously fit and healthy mother of two grown-up children, who worked in a care home for the elderly, discovered she had an aggressive triple negative form of breast cancer in November 2017.
Jasmin, 51, became suspicious when she found a lump above the nipple. She then underwent a gruelling six months of chemotherapy and a mastectomy in April 2018, followed by 15 cycles of radiotherapy which cleared her body of cancer.
