I go home one day, like, you know, from London, and I look at my mum and I think, she looks a little bit sallow.

You know, a bit, you know, she's always got quite a nice tanner, but she just looked a bit sallow.

And I was like, mum, you look a little bit, do you feel all right?

You look a bit, you know, pasty a bit.

No, no, no, it's fine.

Stay there, wake up the next day, yellow.

I thought, there's something not right there.

I hadn't put two and two together.

I took her straight to the doctors, who suggested I take her to A&E.

And then the doctor in the A&E took her behind this curtain and started to examine her.

And I'm the other side of the curtain.

And I hear, oh, he's got his tender there.

And then he says, well, yeah, Mrs. Spencer, you were told last year that if you didn't stop drinking, then, you know, she was told the year before she had cirrhosis of the liver, right?

And she didn't stop drinking.

And then after that, they admitted her to a hospital and I was doing pantomime and I got a phone call on the 2nd of December.

We were told that she had cirrhosis of the liver.

She had damaged the liver.

part of her liver will never function again, right?

This is not a shock to me, but she'd have about five years because she had damaged the liver, and the liver normally can replenish itself, but where it's that damaged, it can't.

So for her age and what liver she has left, the life expectancy, not great, not great, but, you know, okay, we can deal with this.
