Pete Monoghan is taking on one hundred exercises a day in aid of Brain Tumour Research.
The son of a Somerset woman who died of a brain tumour is taking on one hundred exercises a day in her memory.
After a call to 111, Elly was taken to Musgrove Park Hospital, where a scan revealed she had a bleed on the brain caused by Glioblastoma, an aggressive but common type of brain cancer."Mum was due to spend the day with my sister. When I phoned at 10am, it sounded like she was drunk. Pete said: “Mum’s platelet levels weren’t where they needed to be to continue with chemo which finished in October.“For every question we asked, the medical team seemed to come back with the same disappointing response; there was no other treatment available.”Pete explained that although the treatment his mum received was great, more needs to be done to tackle the disease.
“I’m hoping this will encourage more people to donate and get people talking about brain tumours to help raise awareness and drive funding towards research.”The charity is calling on the Government to offer £110 million of current and new funding to kick-start an increase in the national investment in brain tumour research to £35 million a year by 2028.
