A devastated mother whose son is suffering from a terminal brain tumour has shared her heartbreak as she watches him deteriorate. "As him mum I want to save him, but I can't," she said.
Linda Peel, 56, said that "every minute is precious" after her son Andi, 30, was diagnosed with a glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) brain tumour in January 2020. In August 2019 the otherwise fit and healthy Andi, who was a manager at Carphone Warehouse, had an episode of confusion where he couldn’t remember how to drive.
Then, in January 2020, he started getting headaches, which became so severe that he had to pull over when driving. On January 20 that year he went to Leicester Royal Infirmary and had an MRI scan, which revealed a mass on his brain.
