The brain tumour community have come together to help a Bracknell girl who has just received a piece of devastating news.

Jasmine Freeman was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour after experiencing headaches alongside blurred and double vision in February 2023.

With the help of her community of supporters, the seven-year-old and her parents have been taken on a whirlwind of a journey to fight the illness.

The family have recently released a heartbreaking update following her latest MRI in the Netherlands that the tumour has now grown substantially, indicating that the medication isn't effective.

The news that Jasmine may only have months to live has inspired the community to come together to make sure the family have the best Christmas ever.

Bethan Adelekan and Kathryn Carr, who both have sons who are battling brain tumours met the family through the community of brain tumour families.

Bethan, whose son Ravi won the Pride of Britain Courage Award said that they wanted to start a small fund so Jasmine and her family can concentrate on making lasting memories.

Kathryn said: “The general consensus from the community is sadness. We thought it would be really nice for them to have the best Christmas that they could have given the news.

“We wanted to give something to them to help them with anything they might need or cover over the Christmas period.”

Jasmine’s parents, Jakki Nguyen and Anthony Freeman first began the ‘Jasmine the Warrior’ campaign to raise awareness of midline Glioma brain tumour's.

Throughout the past 10 months, they have kept her supporters and the local community updated on every single step of Jasmine's incredible journey.

Although her condition is not deteriorating, a most recent scan showed that Jasmine’s prognosis has taken an ‘unexpected turn’.

Her family released the latest update on social media. They said: “Jasmine’s journey took an unexpected turn. Despite doubling her medication, her high blood pressure persisted, and she had to switch too tablets. The day of her appointment was nerve-wracking, with concerns about whether she could tolerate the tablets.

“At the hospital, tests revealed her tumour had exceeded the trial’s growth limit. Devastating news followed, indicating the medication wasn’t effective. The doctor mentioned a couple of months, leaving me and Jakki absolutely heartbroken.

“Amid tears and heartbreak, Jasmine, with incredible resilience, faced the situation bravely. A glimmer of hope emerged when the doctor later clarified that while the tumour had grown, Jasmine hadn’t deteriorated neurologically.

“After discussions, the family decided to continue the trial, bringing a mix of emotions and the need to Savour every moment. A check-up in January and an MRI in February await.

“They will now try to focus on Jasmine and give her the best Christmas possible!”
