A mum-of-five will be 'making memories' with her family at Center Parcs in Nottinghamshire after her shock terminal cancer diagnosis. Claire Francis claims she was repeatedly sent home with a viral infection after falling ill in February.
She sought medical help during a four-week period - but her observations were okay and it was suspected she had a viral infection, she said. But one consultant ordered a full body scan where the tumours were found, with one of those crushing the nerve to her vocal cord.
Claire was moved to the City Hospital, Nottingham, to begin treatment - where she was then told she also has lung cancer. Claire, who's had surgery to have a tracheostomy fitted to help her breathe, explained she was once told her condition was to do with stress, adding she subsequently found out she had three brain tumours and lung cancer.
