This video tells the story of Annabelle Holloway, my mother, as she faces the challenges of being diagnosed with a brain tumor. It captures the emotional impact of the diagnosis, the courage needed to confront it, and the strength found in love and connection.
Every year, over 12,000 people in the UK are diagnosed with a brain tumor, and they remain one of the most challenging cancers to treat. Symptoms can vary widely but often include persistent headaches, seizures, or changes in vision, balance, or personality. While some tumors are benign and treatable, all require early detection and specialized care. Consider supporting charities like Brain Tumour Research or The Brain Tumour Charity, which fund critical research and provide resources for patients and families.
I was invited to participate in a Q&A with Falmouth University, where I had the opportunity to discuss the creative process, challenges, and insights behind this work. Please do give it a read.
