How Do We Manage... Living With Life-Limiting Illness?

How Do We Manage... Living With Life-Limiting Illness?

In 2008, shortly after he’d qualified as as doctor, Dr Stuart Farrimond was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour. He was forced to leave medical practise, but went on to become a science educator, an international bestselling author and a broadcaster. In this very special episode Stephanie and Dr Stu talked about the mental health condition which, by chance, led to his brain tumour diagnosis, and how he coped with those two illnesses alongside one another. Dr Stu gave us practical tips and techniques for living a healthy life, including his belief that a good night’s sleep provides the most crucial foundation for living well. Sadly, shortly after recording this, Dr Stuart’s condition deteriorated, and he passed away peacefully with friends and family around him in May 2025. This episode goes out in his memory, and with thanks to his wife Grace, for allowing us to share his story and his wisdom. Content warning: This episode includes discussion around eating disorders, mental health issues and cancer treatment.
