“It was heartbreaking. Mum was only 36 when she was diagnosed, which is so young.'
A daughter has paid tribute to her mum who was diagnosed with a brain tumour and died aged just 45. Dionne Ferguson, from Northampton, was hit with the devastating prognosis in 2011.
In 2009, Dionne went to accident and emergency at Northampton General Hospital several times’ because her migraines were so bad she was unable to see. Amelia said: “After initially being dismissed by a doctor, she eventually had a CT scan, but we were told it was all clear. "Mum had so many complications, such as pneumonia, a blood clot, and she needed to be resuscitated three times. She also had locked-in syndrome so her only way of communicating was through blinking.”
Amelia will once more take part in Wear A Hat Day for Brain Tumour Research on Friday 31 March. She said: “I wish Mum was with me to do it. I’ll be doing this in her memory and I think she would be really proud. I want to help find a cure for this devastating disease so other people don’t have to go through what we’ve been through.”
