Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua riro i te tupuna-tuakana he poka nui i tona mata nā te maimoatanga mate pukupuku te rongo kino kei te mate rawa ia. Ko Raymond Martin, 64 ona tau, he angiosarcoma o te mata, he mate pukupuku o te kiri o roto o nga ipu toto. Kua oti i a ia te raupapa o ngā mahi, ko te tuatahi i pau i te 12 haora ki te tango i tētahi pukupuku mai i tōna mata. Engari i hoki mai te mate pukupuku, ā, i hiahiatia e ia ētahi atu maimoatanga, tae atu ki ngā tukanga hei whakarerekē i tōna ihu me tōna mata. I etahi marama kua pahure ake nei ka puta he whara nui i raro i tona kanohi matau, a ka whakamahere nga taote ki te pokanga hei tango i tetahi atu pukupuku. Kua korerotia ki a Raymond Martin, e 64 ona tau, ko te mate pukupuku i whakangaromia ai tona mata, e kore e taea te whakaora, a kaore he mea atu e taea e nga taote te mahi. I whakaahuatia ia i mua i tana kitenga (maui) i muri mai (matau) I whakawhanakehia e Mr Martin tetahi waahi i runga i tona mata i te tau 2012, i timata ki te horapa. I kitea he angiosarcoma mata, he mate pukupuku o te papa o roto o nga ipu toto i te 2013. I hoki mai te mate pukupuku, ā, ka puta he poka nui i raro i te kanohi matau o Mr Martin. Kei te whakaahuahia ia me tona whanau (mai i te maui ki te matau), te mokopuna a Dean Martin, 17, te wahine a Alice, 63, me te tamahine a Julie Martin. Engari i kitea e nga tohunga taatai kua tino horapa te mate pukupuku, kaore he mea e taea te mahi. Ka taea e rātau anake te āwhina ki te whakarerekē i ōna taatai, kia noho pai ai ia. Inaianei, kei te kōrero a Mr Martin me tōna whānau ki te whakaara ake i te mōhiotanga mō te angiosarcoma, i te tūmanako ka taea e tana kōrero te āwhina i ētahi atu. Ko te tamahine a Mr Martin, a Nicola Borthwick, 42, i mea: 'Kua korerotia mai e ratou ki a matou kaore he mea e taea te mahi inaianei. Ko te tūmanako anake, mā te kōrero a Marty e whakaara ake te mōhio, ā, ka ārai i ētahi atu i te mea i pāngia e ia. I tēnei wā kei te noho a Mr Martin ki tōna kāinga i Scotswood, Newcastle, kei reira ia e tiaki ana i a ia e tana wahine a Alice, 63. I tīmata ōna raruraru i te wā i kite ia i tētahi wāhi i runga i tōna kanohi i te tau 2012, engari kāore i whakaaro nui ki a ia. 'I tīmata katoa te reira ki te wahi noa, a ko reira kahore mea motuhake na kihai ahau i manukanuka e pā ana ki reira,' ka mea a Mr Martin. Engari ka tīmata te wāhi ki te horapa, nō reira ka haere ahau ki te kite i tētahi GP me...
Ko Raymond Martin, 64 ona tau, he momo mate pukupuku onge e kiia nei ko te angiosarcoma o te mata. I te tīmatanga i whakapono ia he wahi ia, engari i kitea i te wa i timata ai ia ki te horapa. I whakahaeretia ia e te 12 haora i te wā i tangohia ai e nga tohunga te pukupuku. I tangohia e ngā tākuta he kiri i tōna huha, ā, ka whakahoutia tōna mata me tōna ihu. I hoki mai te mate pukupuku, ā, i puta he poka nui i raro i tōna kanohi matau. Kua korerotia e kore e taea te maimoatanga, a ka meinga ia ki te whakamarie.
