A 'healthy' mum who was told she had a rare form of leukaemia then tragically died on the same day. Teaching assistant Liz Taylor had been suffering with migraines and blurred vision before she was told the news.
Mum-of-two Liz was working full-time at a primary school in Leicester when she began to suffer with migraines and fatigue problems in May 2022 and initially dismissed issues as being linked to her hectic lifestyle.
Blood tests from her GP revealed she had a low blood count, but the reason for it was thought to be nothing more than a virus, reports LeicestershireLive.

However, Liz then began to struggle even more, with her vision blurring while her migraines intensified in pain. The 51-year-old was taken to A&E where she was diagnosed with neutropenia – a condition which means sufferers have a low number of a particular type of white cells in her blood.
Things continued to worsen for Liz and she developed a pain in her chest and legs, along with more migraines, further blurred vision and heavy bleeding.
MRI scans at the Leicester Royal Infirmary confirmed multiple marks on her brain, with the 51-year-old immediately admitted as doctors believed she was suffering from a heart problem that was causing a series of small strokes. Two weeks after being admitted she suffered a large and serious stroke, with further testing then required.
It took until July 14 last year for the truth to emerge when Liz was diagnosed with acute promyeloctic leukaemia (APML). APML is a rare sub-type of acute myeloid leukaemia which is itself a form of blood cancer, but the news came too late for Liz as she died that very same day.
