Laura Mangan - My Brain Tumour in Wrexham Stretch

One year ago, when her 1st born was 3 weeks old, Laura Mangan was diagnosed with a a brain tumour.

From Limerick, now living in the UK with partner and Wrexham FC player Anthony Forde - club owner Ryan Reynolds stepped in and found answers.

While Laura's story has been featured throughout media with and without her knowledge - this is Laura's story.

A first time mother living away from home with a newborn standing in the hospital with an expressed bottle at home being told this news.

And here for the first time she tells it in her own words. 

March is Brain Tumour Awareness Month and one year on almost to the day from her diagnosis, Laura is here and ready to use her voice to create more awareness.
