Scotland rugby internationalist Emma Wassell has told how her “family” of teammates cared for her through tumour surgery months after her mother died.
The 29-year-old spent nearly two weeks in hospital after the mass was discovered last month, ruling her out of the current WXV 2 tournament.
She told BBC Scotland News that in her mother’s absence, her “rugby family” devised a rota to help care for her – which included brushing her hair, feeding her and ensuring she was never alone.
“They allowed me not to ever feel in a dark place,” she said. “I don’t know how I would have got through it without them.”
