Nottinghamshire mum of seven stays positive despite terminal cancer diagnosis

A mum of seven has remained positive despite a terminal brain cancer diagnosis, which has left her with what doctors expect to be 18 months to live. Alison Horspool, who also has two stepchildren and nine grandchildren was diagnosed with Glioblastoma IDH, wildtype grade four - a fast-growing and aggressive cancer.

The 61-year-old, who is currently living between Nottinghamshire - with two of her daughters - and Cornwall with her partner, was diagnosed after an MRI scan in February 2023 revealed three masses on her brain. After a biopsy, Alison was told on April 20 that she had cancer.
