## Resource

A young woman in Doncaster, Sarah-Jane Doherty, was diagnosed with a golf ball-sized brain tumour after a year of misdiagnosed symptoms—including psychosis and seizures—mistaken for bipolar disorder. While battling her illness, she also fought for a holiday refund from loveholidays, facing bureaucratic indifference until her TikTok post sparked corporate action. After emotional advocacy by her mother and pressure from the CEO’s office, loveholidays granted a full refund—but British Airways remains silent. Her story is a powerful reminder of the urgent need for compassion and better protections for those facing life-altering health crises.
