A toddler who started suffering from a limp and felt nauseous which doctors initially believed was due to Covid-19 was actually a brain tumour.
Little Lola, from Sherburn-in-Elmet, Yorkshire, was diagnosed with a pilocytic astrocytoma on February 17 this year at just two years old. She had been experiencing a range of symptoms such as a limp and head tilt which caused her speech to decline, YorkshireLive reports.
Mum Jessica Hunt, 26, said Lola also began "acting very confused", sleeping often and suffering from vomiting episodes. Jessica said: "We’d been told numerous times this was a result of having had Covid-19 but as a mum, instincts suggested there was something more serious underlying."
