🎗️ Inspiring and heartbreaking: Aimi Hopkins, TV and film wardrobe star, including HBO’s House of the Dragon, bravely shares her story of battling cervical cancer for the second time. A mix-up in a 2015 smear test meant Aimi missed early warnings of the disease, leading to a devastating diagnosis eight years later.
🌟 Despite undergoing intensive cancer treatment, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, her journey has been far from easy. Before Christmas, she received the crushing news that her cancer had returned and spread to her bones.
👗 Known for her work on The Witcher and more, Aimi has had to step back from her vibrant career. She hopes her story encourages others to advocate for their health and ensure they’re supported throughout their journey.
🩺 Public Health Wales acknowledged their error in handling her smear results, which delayed necessary intervention. Now, Aimi seeks justice, aiming to improve the healthcare experience for others.
💬 Aimi’s message: “Ladies, ensure you attend regular screenings and never go through this alone. Together, we can bring change.”
🙏 Her courage is a powerful reminder of the importance of early detection and accurate diagnoses. Let’s rally around Aimi and spread awareness. Your health is invaluable!
