She 'went to see different GPs seven times' and said they told her that her three-year-old boy just had a viral infection
A mum-of-four from Immingham “went to see different GPs seven times” and said they told her that her three-year-old boy just had a viral infection, but he was later diagnosed with a brain tumour which he has since survived.
Jett’s mum Keiley is now working with the charity Brain Tumour Research and is taking on the 10,000 Steps a Day in February challenge to raise money to help find a cure. Brain tumours kill more children than leukaemia and any other cancer, yet historically just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this devastating disease.
His mum said she went to see “different GPs seven times, but they all said the same thing, that Jett, had a viral infection, and I should just take him home and give him some Calpol.”Jett before his diagnosis. | Photo: Brain Tumour Research On the morning of Jett’s operation to remove the tumour on December 16 that year, he had a massive seizure. He was immediately taken for surgery, which lasted 10 hours, and the operation was successful. They removed the whole tumour which was 4cm long.
“The chemotherapy had even reduced the number of tumours on Jett’s spine, and we were told he was well enough to begin radiotherapy on the back of his head and spine. On March 30, Jett came home but he ended up back in hospital a week later because he had suffered a massive bleed on his brain, after a shunt which had been fitted to drain excess fluid became blocked. He had an operation to remove the shunt and replace it with an external ventricular drain .
