Cancer sufferer to get dying wish

Teresa Wasik
Ms Wasik's dying wish is to see her son once more

A woman who is suffering from terminal cervical cancer is waiting to hear when she can be flown to Wroclaw ,Poland, to see her son, Kuba, 11, before she dies.

An air ambulance company based in Bristol has agreed to let Teresa Wasik fly at cost price once arrangements for her care in Poland have been made.

Doctors at the Royal United Hospital in Bath say the 34-year-old is too ill to travel on a scheduled flight to Poland.

So far around £4,000 of the £6,400 needed has been raised.
