Sara Crosland struggles to walk six years after her diagnosis but will climb one of Africa's highest peaks.
A woman who has survived a brain tumour but still struggles to walk is attempting to climb one of North Africa's highest peaks with her son.The tumour was removed but she still struggles with balance and has hearing loss and fatigue after the treatment.
Ms Crosland set up The Beyond Recovery Project last year to raise awareness of the long term impact of living with a brain tumour diagnosis. Being a brain tumour survivor herself, Ms Crosland said she recognised the gaps in support once treatments are finished. Daniel Crosland, who will be supporting the team, said: “Having seen what my mum went through with her own diagnosis and the impact it had on the family as a whole, being part of this challenge is important to me.
