Susan Dhillon, 51, a mum-of-three, was diagnosed with inoperable stage four cancer of the mouth, nose and lower skull in June 2018.

Doctors said unless she had chemotherapy – and then incredibly risky facial surgery – her only option was end of life care.But despite the tumours growing at a rate of 5% a month, she shunned the treatment.

Susan is now holding out hope she will one day enter remission and is still taking a cannabis tablet every day.‘I was told I could die in weeks or months. They told me it was inoperable.‘I didn’t think I’d see my next birthday. The cannabis is keeping the cancer at bay.’ Sue went to the doctors after food started to come out of her nose while she was eating and she noticed she had holes in her mouth, in May last year.

Two weeks later, in June last year, she was told she had stage 4 advanced sinonasal carcinoma involving the skull – a rare cancer of the nasal cavity.Doctors said unless she had chemotherapy, and then incredibly risky facial surgery, her only option was end of life care She added: ‘I didn’t want chemotherapy. It’s not natural and I don’t believe in it.After five months of daily doses, she went back to hospital in December for a scan to see if her tumours had grown.
