Edward Denmark had 'classic symptoms' but claims he was dismissed at first
Edward Denmark, from Moreton , was experiencing - what he now knows to be - “classic symptoms” of the disease, including rib pain and tiredness. However, initially, the 63-year-old's ailments were just put down to an aftermath effect of his time serving as a soldier in the Falklands War and the Troubles in Northern Ireland.
The grandad-of-three said: “I was sitting there and I noticed all these magazines on the table. They all had cancer written on them in big letters. I said to my wife Patricia about it but not for one second did I think it had anything to do with me. But that changed when I walked into the consultant.
Despite everything Edward said he has “never felt sad once” since being given the news about his deteriorating health. Since being diagnosed in 2015, Edward said he “simply won’t be defeated” and has gone on to release three books, deliver numerous motivational talks and even travel to Argentina to campaign for the justice of Falklands War veterans, his former enemy.
