A Northumberland cyclist who was put in a coma for three days after he came off his bike says the accident led to the discovery of lump on his kidney.
Tim Lambert was out riding in Corbridge with a friend back in October 2021 when he came off his bike just a mile away from his home and was airlifted to hospital by the Great North Air Ambulance Service (GNAAS).
The 75-year-old suffered a serious head injury, a clot behind his eye, as well as a broken nose and cheekbones. He was put in a coma at the scene of the accident before being flown to the Royal Victoria Infirmary (RVI) in Newcastle. There, he was put in intensive care and placed on a life-support machine.
