A toddler who developed a limp and nausea was told her illness was due to her having previously had Covid-19. However parents of the little girl were in for a shock when doctors realised it was a brain tumour, which is thought to have been present since birth.
Lola from Sherburn-in-Elmet experienced symptoms including a limp and head tilt, which led to the little girl's speech being affected. The two-year-old was diagnosed with pilocytic astrocytoma on February 17 this year.
Lola's mum Jessica Hunt, 26, noticed the odd patterns in her daughter's behaviour. As reported by Yorkshire Live Lola also began "acting very confused", sleeping often and suffering from vomiting episodes.
