Twickenham dad's fundraiser after mum's migraine turned out to be deadly tumour
Briefly

Nicolette Richardson, 41, tragically succumbed to a glioblastoma brain tumor shortly after experiencing symptoms initially mistaken for a migraine. Following emergency surgery, she endured severe physical impairments and ultimately passed away on November 30, 2020. In the aftermath of her death, her partner, Austen Ham-Howes, is now raising funds for Brain Tumour Research through donations from his osteopathy practice, honoring Nicolette's memory while supporting the brain tumor community. Five years later, he expresses his hope of creating a legacy for her through meaningful contributions to awareness and research efforts.
I hope this fundraising will be the start of a legacy to remember Nicolette whilst doing something meaningful for the brain tumour community. One minute, we were viewing houses where we planned to build a future together, the next, Nicolette was taken ill.
I joined Facebook groups for fellow widowers affected by brain tumours and read stories of patients who had gone through radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other treatments.
