A woman who inspired comedian Peter Kay to return to the stage after a long absence has sadly died. Laura Nuttall who was going through an extensive ‘bucket list’ after being diagnosed with aggressive brain cancer has passed away, her devastated mum said.
Laura, aged 23, was given just a year to live in 2018 after doctors found she had glioblastoma multiforme, the most aggressive form of brain cancer. But in a story which inspired thousands she refused to let it stop her - and carried out a host of her ambitions.
But now her mum Nicola has taken to twitter and given the bad news this morning. She said: “I’m heartbroken to share the news that we lost our beautiful Laura in the early hours of this morning. She was fierce & tenacious to the end & it was truly the honour of my life to be her mum.
