I got life-threatening diagnosis aged just 15

Now in remission, Nathan hopes his story will help others spot signs of leukaemia

- HELENA VESTY

A 23-YEAR-OLD who survived a life-threatening diagnosis has spoken out about the hidden symptoms of an illness after believing he was just tired.

Nathan Hall was only 15 when he decided to see his GP about fatigue, but instead received the devastating news that he had acute myeloid leukaemia (AML).

Nathan was forced to undergo gruelling treatment in Manchester which ‘wiped him out completely’. He was ‘underweight, tired and primarily bald’ as a young teenager.

A year after being given the all clear, Nathan faced yet another cancer battle after relapsing. An intense round of surgery later, he miraculously survived cancer a second time – and is now raising awareness of the hidden symptoms everyone should know.
