A Scots gran found out she had terminal brain cancer after being hospitalised following a car crash. Mandy Stewart, 53, was on her way to visit her grandkids with her husband Fraser Simpson, 55, when a motorist crashed into the couple's car in Glasgow.
The gran-of-two, who suffers from osteoarthritis, took the full force of the collision and suffered neck injuries. She attended the Glasgow Royal Infirmary to be checked over but medics were concerned by swelling on Mandy's neck and decided to keep her to run tests.
In a tragic twist of fate, an X-Ray of Mandy's neck revealed a growth on her brain. A further MRI then confirmed Mandy was suffering from incurable brain cancer. Her heartbroken daughter Suzanne, 22, says her mum is rapidly declining and has been told by doctors she will be lucky to see Christmas.
