Mum Jane Short, 52, ignored bowel screening, later diagnosed with stage 4 cancer
Jane Short, 52, put off her NHS bowel screening for two years, only completing it after developing stomach problems. Doctors subsequently discovered a tumour originating in her bowel that had metastasized to her liver, resulting in a diagnosis of stage four cancer. She is now encouraging individuals to complete the test promptly, given that Glasgow's participation rate stands at merely 60%.
