AN INSPIRATIONAL teenager whose life has been turned upside-down following a brain tumour diagnosis is raising money for the hospital where she was treated.
Katlyn Smith’s ordeal began after Christmas when her vision in her left eye became blurred.
The 13-year-old from Andover visited an optician who referred her to an eye specialist at a Southampton hospital.
