Wayne Barton is now going on a sponsored charity walk to raise money for finding a cure
A Leeds man found out he had a brain tumour after being taken to hospital following a fall down the stairs in his home.
He said: “It happened all the time; in the garden when I was mowing the lawn, or when I was in the lounge. I’d spend a few seconds on the floor and then I would feel OK again."“I never told my wife Michelle and I managed to hide it from her because I don’t like worrying people. But she found out when I started having seizures during the night.”
"They said there was a mass on my brain which was a brain tumour. I walked out of the room because I thought I was going to die.”Wayne was set to undergo and operation to remove the tumour but after he had been put under for surgery, doctors discovered it was on a "sensitive" section of his frontal lobe so it could not be removed. When Wayne woke up, he said he "burst into tears".
Now, Wanye, his wife Michelle and his family, including his children, 29-year-old Dominic and 36-year-old Ryan, will be embarking on a 'Walk of Hope' around the ten lakes at Lindholme Lakes Country Park. They hope to raise money for brain tumour research.
