Tom Parker described how he was 'on his own' for diagnosis InsideMyHead
The Wanted's Tom Parker has recalled the devastating moment he was told that he had a brain tumour in his new documentary series.
Recalling the diagnosis, he said: "Because of the Covid situation I was on my own in Norwich hospital and they came in and put the curtain round and said: 'You have got a brain tumour.'" Meanwhile his wife Kelsey described how she 'could not stop shaking' as Tom was taken to hospital by the paramedics in October.
"But it's not growing. It just doesn't look as prominent does it?" Tom said, turning to Kelsey. "I needed this," he added smiling as he breathed a sigh of relief. However, the couple have been praised for their positivity throughout the ordeal. Tom has fought his battle against cancer tirelessly, refusing to ask for a prognosis – which he and Kelsey deem "pointless" – and only taking breaks from treatments over the weekends.
Tom has described the whole experience as "awful and unnerving" and admitted he questioned whether it was doing him any good overall. He even considered stopping the treatment altogether.
