When the doctors found a brain tumour in early February, Semple was rushed into hours long surgery.
“I’m learning to use my left side again,” he said. “My fingers work on my left hand, which I’m very excited about, and they’re very thrilled, because usually after surgery like this, your hand is dead, but my hand is alive, so that’s good.

“He was good. Unbelievable what can happen in science nowadays.”
