Susan Hetherington: routine eye test led to undergoing life-saving surgery to remove a brain tumour
Imagine you go in for a routine eye test and it leads to undergoing life-saving surgery to remove a brain tumour.

Now Susan is now campaigning with the charity Brain Tumour Research and calling on the Government and the larger cancer charities to spend more on research into the disease.
