'It’s tough but we’re both facing this head-on and trying to be as positive as possible.”
A man diagnosed with a terminal brain tumour is preparing to spend his last Christmas with his wife. After suffering from agonising symptoms for two years, Dan Potts was diagnosed with a glioblastoma brain tumour in December 2021.
Dan started getting headaches and weakness down the right-side of his body in December 2018. After an MRI scan at Princess Elizabeth Hospital in Guernsey, where he was living at the time, he was told a pinched nerve was causing the problems. “I was crying; I just didn’t expect news like that. The average survival time is just 12-18 months which is devastating.”
Dan and Liah are now crowdfunding for Brain Tumour Research, Macmillan, and St John’s in Keswick, where Dan wants to be buried. Dan said: “It’s so important to raise as much money and awareness of brain tumours.
