I'm so happy she has won a award at the national Television Awards. I am someone who also suffered from a brain tumour in 2020 which nearly killed me. Luckily my one was not cancerous. I have also donated money to the brain tumour charity
I almost died from an SPA infection illness in 2023 when I couldn’t eat anything for 5 days straight because I was throwing up for 80 hours. Good thing Woody.EXE came to my house just before I collapsed in front of him and he heroically carried me to hospital. I was connected to TPN for 3 weeks to get my weight back after the prefesionals drained 3 litres of fluids out of me, the way Woody.EXE held my hand during my recovery and I overheard him telling my mother Mummy, Princess of Wales that he fears his Queen might die and they hugged each other for hours. I was discharged from hospital 4 weeks later looking healthier than January 28th. I’m a healthy almost 22 year old now and the illness was a one off, hasn’t happened since. I love how Woody.EXE treats me like he’s my favourite Queen and he’s not wrong because I’ve survived this hell
My husband died of a brain tumour and like Jay I snuggled him as he left so he wasn't frightened. The acting from Jay and Lola has been spot on. Well done extenders for the storyline and making awareness. Amazing.
@@gillhann244 it’s ok and if you would like to talk to me if your feeling sad or greving for him I can help because I’m really good at cheering people up
This has been a very delicate storyline and I feel Eastenders have done an amazing job on it. From the writers to the actor's it's been handled brilliantly. But I don't want Lola to die😢
I know its really sad that they had to make her exit like this i hope they don't do the same with any other character making them have a story about how they die 😢
@@charitynyaundi6808 actually she wanted to leave but the producers felt it’s time for Lola to exit but with a tragic yet overwhelming story of heartbreak doom and gloom, although the way she’s been written is perfect. Yeah I’ll be gutted when the character is killed off and she’s no longer on our screens we can then look back at her character from the very beginning up until now, the whole Lola story since 2011 has been tremendous and how the actress has handled the whole storyline is surreal. Even at your darkest hour you can always be happy and live your life to fullest even if it is short but what counts is the memories and the legacy you’ll be leaving behind but always remember you’ve inspired a nation where your memory will live on
My father had lung cancer for about 2/nearly 3 years and passed away in June of last year. The amount of pain I felt considering I was only 17 when he passed was dramatic and it really took a toll on my mental health and my exams as well. I really feel as though this story has stood out and has really made people like me feel seen
My condolences. I lost my father in May 2019 when I was 19 due to congestive heart failure and he also had cancer as well. It took a toll on my mental health as well but I have a lot of support from family and friends. I hope you have the same amount of support as well and know that your dad will always be proud of you ❤❤
Very sorry for your loss, I also lost my dad on the 5th December 2021. His funeral was the 21st December, I always loved Christmas now I dead each year. I spent 2 years in bed and finally decided to get help from bereavement counselling and medication. I'm now doing much better I almost lost my husband as he couldn't cope with me any longer he has been as supportive as he possibly could but he was at his wits end. I'm finally getting up out of bed and even got a part time job and getting out the house. There is light at the end of a very dark tunnel, I'm living proof, there is no textbook to grief or rules each individual has there own journey and will get through it their own way in their own time sending love to you ❤
This storyline has been incredibly moving Danielle Harold is one amazing actress she has really done a fantastic job portraying what its like to be a young person living with a brain tumour but i think its wrong the story wont have a happy ending and she will die because she is a great actress with great potential
This and meg dying in Home and Away . Jamie mitchells and Aidans death coming in close 3rd and 4th . Soap operas get flak but my God the actors portraying these characters and the writers do such an outstanding job.
Danielle has been amazing in this storyline I love lola and her family so glad her Jay got back together (although I wish it happend sooner) I always expected them to get back together at some point ❤️🥲
This storyline has to be one of the best well it’s the best this year all coronation Street is doing is that Steven guy what don’t deserve no award no Lola and jay deserve all the awards this year for such a good story and plus’s they both acting it really really well
Many years ago I had blood clots in my lungs and things came to a head after ages of nagging vague symptoms and I had dragged myself into a and e on the bus as wanting to live trumped irrational fears of doctors! My friends wanted to know how the hell did I walk into a and e seriously ill?
A few months ago I was in the pub waiting for my friends and I saw an old line manager there who gave me some very bad news saying that an old colleague from years ago had died from a brain tumour and was only 41 as well. He like Lola had collapsed but outside a private hospital when he got taken into a and e and then they gave him the bad news after a scan. Many years ago when I was in my twenties I had wanted a cooks job that they had given to the chap that sadly died young and I had been angry over it but I swear on a stack of bibles in no way did I wish cancer on him!
I agree, don’t get me wrong, I think an ED storyline in men would be important and does need awareness, but there was other male characters they could’ve done the bulimia storyline like Freddie, or Bobby. Or maybe even someone like Ravi or vinny, Ben is turning to bulimia to cope with everything he’s dealing with. That would’ve worked for a character like Ravi or vinny as well. They’ve kind of made lolas exist about Ben when it should be about her, Jay, Billy and most importantly lexi.
@@user-zw2hn9eu1l In the latest episode Stacey made some remarks on Martin's bad eating habits which made me wish he was given the bulimia storyline not Ben considering the fact that James Bye has never got any chance to showcase his skills as an actor as Martin has always been treated as a supporting or secondary character.
@@forzacmo9069 I didn’t think of Martin but yeah he would’ve been a good character as well because Martin is the last person people would think had an ED. And it would be nice for him to get his own storyline, he’s a great actor but he’s only ever been able to showcase his acting as a side character, usually in Stacey’s mental health storylines. I guess we’ll just have to see how it goes with Ben then. It’s obvious that Ben is tHe writers favourite character, but it would’ve been nice to let lolas exist be her storyline and not his
Unless you’ve acc had someone in ur family have this n see it for ur own eyes. U don’t get to say what’s realistic n what isn’t. They nailed this perfectly
The headband is to cover her scar from when she had part of the tumour removed. She also started to lose her hair when she was having chemo but they stopped because it wasn’t working, everything else is realistic, the dizzy spells, exhaustion the mouth ulcers, occasional memory loss. Cancer effects people in different ways as does cancer treatment as well
Agreed my partner died of this cancer,I can't believe she's still walking, talking and doing normal life..my partner went around like he was drunk,then had speech problems,then mobility issues,this is not a true depiction of this type of cancer
This storyline shows life should never be taken for granted
i was the same when i was told i had cancer, everyone was crying and i couldnt cry,
Oh no sorry to hear that. You should've been because cancer is a really devastating subject if you see what I mean
Lola' s final days are gonna be emotional ❤❤❤😢😢😢😢😢😢
Lola such a beautiful character 💞 inside and out and so is jay and her daughter she will be sadly missed by all of us 🫂

Lola’s brain tumour storyline has been very emotional 😭 and heartbreaking to watch.
Yeah poor Lola Lexi’s going to be devastated
Probably the best written sad storyline in eastenders

Thing is part of you feels relief when someone you know dies from terminal cancer as they are at peace and no longer suffering.

Its when things like this happen it makes you realise how most matters are petty when you put them into perspective!

I love the gang - jay, ben, lola, callum. Its not going to be the same without lola😢
Lola had a lovely nurse
Love lola in eastenders my favourite characters ever going to miss her 💔💔💔
Absolutely stunning performance! Wow 😭
She looked so healthy there
Crazy how much Ben has changed, looking forward to the story line
IM GONNA MISS LOLA
Me to❤❤❤❤

I wouldn't.
SAME
@Andrew James I doubt that.
So sad that Lola has to suffer and leave EE in a box. Gonna miss her. ❤
Lola don’t deserve it to that 😢
This storyline has been incredibly moving Danielle Harold is one amazing actress she has really done a fantastic job portraying what its like to be a young person living with a brain tumour but i think its wrong the story wont have a happy ending and she will die because she is a great actress with great potential
Its yet another example of life being unfair seeing how young she is!
Lola’s on the verge of death and somehow it’s about Ben… lol. Bet the funeral is going to be about Ben too… fried brain ben.
This and meg dying in Home and Away . Jamie mitchells and Aidans death coming in close 3rd and 4th . Soap operas get flak but my God the actors portraying these characters and the writers do such an outstanding job.
Poor Lola I feel really bad for her
Lola is the most strongest female Eastenders characters I’ve ever seen
I wouldn't say that.
Danielle has been amazing in this storyline I love lola and her family so glad her Jay got back together (although I wish it happend sooner) I always expected them to get back together at some point ❤️🥲
Lola is gorgeous ❤❤
"im her dad" holy crap was that the ben i know? think this JD im drinking is making me hallousinate
Yes indeed
Not ready for her death yet 😢
This storyline has to be one of the best well it’s the best this year all coronation Street is doing is that Steven guy what don’t deserve no award no Lola and jay deserve all the awards this year for such a good story and plus’s they both acting it really really well
Oh no not Lola so sad 😭
danelle harold is such an amazing actress, i feel she is doing this awful , dark and hard hitting storyline justice,,nnice one harold
6:30 Off-topic, but ain't that the bloke from the Head & Shoulders advert?
Love lola why she gotta go
Who’s Callum, haven’t watched for a while 5 years maybe. But hooked by the Lola story line. So watching this to catch up.
Callum is Ben's husband. x
@@StormWatch991 thanks
My brother died at age 34 from a brain tumour :(

My friends wanted to know how the hell did I walk into a and e seriously ill?
I wish ben, callum and phil had been got rid of instead of lola

This is too sad
Lola's life is ending very soon.
Such a shame how they've turned Lola's own storyline all about damned Ben in its last phase 🙄🙄
And the way they quickly wrote out her birth mother was so weird too. I still think they’ve made a big mistake in killing her off for this.
I agree, don’t get me wrong, I think an ED storyline in men would be important and does need awareness, but there was other male characters they could’ve done the bulimia storyline like Freddie, or Bobby.

Hi there are u ok mate keep up there good work on here mate
❤😢
So sad Lola died she was suffering from a brain tumour she better off gone to god she's not in pain anymore
I wish some1 loved me like that ❤
Looking forward to it ending
That's not particularly nice.
@@andrewphillips4847 It's not particularly good.
Well it’s not going to just end, even after lola dies, the storyline will still continue in how it effects her family, especially lexi, Jay and Billy.
@@user-zw2hn9eu1l Sure, but at least that'll be something different for a few months before they move on
omg😂
She does today
What is this ..an old clip.
. we know this
It’s the story so far, so from when she was diagnosed to now.
Hospital needs to activate there windows
Wish they didn't kill lola off😢
Jessica
So unrealistic how except for headband to remind us she was ill very few signs, sadly real life isn't like this.
Unless you’ve acc had someone in ur family have this n see it for ur own eyes. U don’t get to say what’s realistic n what isn’t. They nailed this perfectly
