Scots gran told she has terminal brain cancer after being hospitalised following car crash

A Scots gran found out she had terminal brain cancer after being hospitalised following a car crash. Mandy Stewart, 53, was on her way to visit her grandkids with her husband Fraser Simpson, 55, when a motorist crashed into the couple's car in Glasgow.

In a tragic twist of fate, an X-Ray of Mandy's neck revealed a growth on her brain. A further MRI then confirmed Mandy was suffering from incurable brain cancer. Her heartbroken daughter Suzanne, 22, says her mum is rapidly declining and has been told by doctors she will be lucky to see Christmas. "The doctors wanted to check her neck so they sent her away for a scan and it picked up this dark growth. When the MRI results came back saying it was cancer we were devastated.

Her family says medics believe the tumour in her brain could be secondary cancer. The beloved gran had experienced no symptoms.She has good days and bad days. She's wheelchair-bound now and relies on other aids such as a mobility scooter and a chair lift to get about the house. She's very open about her condition with the grandkids so that they're not scared.
