FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Mum labelled ticking time bomb after impromptu blood pressure check - Caught on Camera

The mother was then given a warning from doctors after attending an event and getting checked with the Northern Ireland Chest Heart & Stroke (NICHS), who were present and offering blood pressure tests, reports Belfast Live.
