I thought I was hungover during a girls' holiday to Zante - but doctors said my ... trends now
When Ella Pick struggled to keep up with her friends during a girls' holiday in Zante, she blamed her hangover.
But the 19-year-old's world was turned upside down when doctors revealed she had an incurable brain tumour.
The check-out worker, from Boston in Lincolnshire, was heartbreakingly given a year to live.
Although there's no proof her symptoms during her holiday to the Greek island last June were down to her brain tumour, similar ones are known to occur.
Miss Pick said she felt 'off' towards the end of a week-long trip to Zante with four of her friends to celebrate the end of college.

She began experiencing severe migraines upon returning home before her left eye drifted inwards
However, her symptoms worsened when she returned home.
Miss Pick said: 'Everything kind of started when I went away with my girls to Zante for a holiday. It was amazing.
'For the first two or three nights, I felt absolutely fine. We were all having the best time.
'Then I didn't exactly feel ill, I just didn't feel myself. I wasn't drinking as much or going out as much.
'I thought maybe it could be a hangover. I just felt off. Now I look back and think I clearly wasn't well.'

Now she looks back on her holiday to Zante and knows she didn't feel well. At the time she thought it was just a hangover
She added: 'We got home and I felt absolutely fine then a week or so later I started getting severe migraines.
'The pressure in the back of my head was awful. I've always suffered with migraines but never to that extent.
