Young mum with terminal cancer desperately struggles to find a home as landlords 'won't accept her'

A young mum who is battling cancer is struggling to find somewhere to live after landlords keep rejecting her. Delilah May, 27, wants to move somewhere closer to her family after being diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer.

Despite having a 'lovely home' in Lancashire, Delilah is desperate to be around her loved ones whilst her illness worsens for the sake of her three-year-old son, but is having a hard time finding anywhere to rent as landlords 'won't accept her' for a new tenancy.

The mum-of-one began experiencing bloating and pains in March last year, which she initially put down to an IBS flare-up. But as her symptoms began to worsen and she found it more difficult to play with her son Jake, she took herself to the hospital where she was later diagnosed with terminal bowel cancer.
