Leigh Naylor, (pictured) was distraught when doctors found a cervical tumour they had missed and gave her nine months to live

A woman who claims doctors failed to diagnose her terminal cancer 16 times, raised 35,000 to fund treatment in Germany as she prepares to take legal action against the NHS.

Leigh Naylor was distraught when medics revealed they had found cervical tumour, giving her nine months to live in March.

The 32-year-old raised 35,000 to fund treatment in Germany, after doctors in the UK said all they could offer was a course of life-prolonging chemotherapy.
