Dulwich woman with brain cancer's journey after seizure on 30th birthday trip
Briefly

"It was a real shock to be diagnosed with brain cancer. Apart from the seizure, I felt and still feel okay in myself. I remember waking up on the floor of the shopping centre in Battersea not knowing what had happened and laughed in disbelief when my friend told me I'd had a seizure."
"I don’t want to be just another statistic. I’m maintaining hope for myself and others who are diagnosed with this disease."
"Brain tumours kill more women under 35 than breast cancer, yet just 1 per cent of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to brain tumours since records began in 2002."
"My mum died of breast cancer when I was younger and during an appointment with the oncologist, my dad laid out the extent of our full family history. They couldn’t tell us if there was a link."
