Brett's Story | Stand Up To Cancer

When Brett was first diagnosed with a brain tumour, doctors removed as much of the tumour as possible, but that wasn't the end of his journey.

Brett and Nicola met when they were first teachers, when they went from friends to best friends to husband and wife.

After the birth of their two daughters, Freya and Ella, Nicola started to notice changes in Brett. The tumour had returned, this time more aggressively, when Nicola was pregnant with Ariya.

Nicola remembers getting the test results and being told, this time, it was inoperable. Three months later, Nicola went into labour at Luton Hospital, while at home Brett had suffered a seizure.

Ariya was born at 5.07am on 11 February. Brett sadly died at 8.25am.

Brett lives on through his three beautiful children and Nicola.

“My daddy sends us feathers to let us know he’s looking after us.”
