A mum given just three months to live after a doctor misdiagnosed her cancer as the menopause has spoke of her astonishment at being told she is now in remission. Caroline Guy, 56, was left heartbroken after being diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer which had spread to her liver and ovaries in January 2020.
Doctors gave her the devastating prognosis that the cancer was terminal and that she only had around three or four months to live. But Caroline refused to give up hope and continued to undergo gruelling rounds of chemotherapy to shrink the tumours at Nottingham University Hospitals.
Six weeks ago she went under the knife for extensive surgery at the city's Queen's Medical Centre where she had a full hysterectomy and part of her bowel removed. And following further tests Caroline was left gobsmacked to be told she is now cancer free, which she has described as "a miracle."
