Believing she’s only days to live on discovering a malignant tumour, Susie’s family prepare a goodbye. Stars Kathryn Howden.

On Monday Susie had a fit in her sleep. On Tuesday they scanned her brain and found a tumour.

On Wednesday they confirmed the tumour was malignant.

Believing Susie has only days to live, the family prepare to say goodbye.
