A woman was stunned to learn the cause of her "nightmares" that left her waking up exhausted.
For over a year Catherine Cassidy, 32, had nightmare-like episodes as she began to fell asleep or shortly before she woke up.
However, she was oblivious until her partner Jim told her that she was shouting out and shaking in her sleep, Liverpool Echo writes.
Catherine put the night terrors down to work related stress or fatigue for months until her family convinced her otherwise.
Her mum pleaded with her to see a GP, who diagnosed her with epilepsy, prescribed tablets and kept increasing the dose.
But Catherine's night-time seizures become more frequent, leading the GP to send her for an MRI that uncovered a type of brain tumour called an Anaplastic Astrocytoma that can cause memory problems.
Catherine said: "We were all working from home, so I was actually thankfully with my partner at home and he was sat next to me when I got the call.
"When my GP said to me, 'I've just looked at your MRI, I'm so sorry, you've actually got a brain tumour', I just passed the phone to Jim.
"The worst part for me was thinking, 'I have to tell my parents this, and I have to tell them over Facetime because of lockdown'."
She said it was "soul destroying" seeing tears in her parents' eyes as she told them, without even a hug, that their youngest child had a brain tumour.
Catherine said: "It's hard because you get to a point where you think, 'I want to take care of my parents and I want to help them however I can'. I enjoyed that aspect.
"When it got to the point where I couldn't, it was soul destroying.
"I felt like I was becoming a young child again, like a toddler who's running around all the time and needs your attention so it doesn't break something,
