FOUND: Dad of two given devastating diagnosis after noticing something while shaving - What They Never Told You

Michael Schillinger, 57, thought the lump was a swollen gland, but made an appointment to see his doctor to check. But his GP recognised signs of cancer, and made an urgent referral for tests, scans and a biopsy.

The test results revealed that Michael had stage four cancer - a diagnosis that his children Ben, 16, and Kate, 12, described as a frightening and traumatic life-changing event, reports CheshireLive.
