In 2013 my mom Lorna was diagnosed with lung cancer. She had three fifths of her right lung removed, which was followed by 3 months of Chemotherapy. Until this illness, Lorna was an extremely fit and healthy woman who always had a good diet, had never been overweight and NEVER smoked in her life. She was x-rayed every 6 months ( which should have been scans ) for the next 3 years and told she was cancer free, right up until June 2016 and then told not to return for another 12 months. She then felt unwell at the beginning of November 2016. She saw a doctor and was then referred back to hospital, where the surgeon examined her and ordered an emergency scan. She had to wait a whopping 5 weeks for this emergency scan and in the meantime was given a high dose of steroids which caused a stroke. When she finally got her scan results, it showed that she was not cancer free at all and was in fact stage 4 terminal and was told she would not be offered any surgery. The NHS also failed to notice fluid around her heart, which actually was visible on the scan. It then took 6 months before they decided to do anything about, whilst still ignoring the cancer. She has fought this disease on her own for 9 months now, which will hopefully give you an idea of just how strong she is, but she has now lost nearly 4 stone and desperately needs this specialist treatment in Germany. This is her only chance to survive
