Philip Raeburn was admitted to a mental health ward at Borders General Hospital after the 'happy and smiley' Scot suddenly changed.
A Scots dad admitted to a mental health ward after suffering from 'depression-like symptoms' was left shocked after medics discovered a tumour in his brain.
Sister Alison Tyson, 53, from Blairgowrie said: "Philip was always so happy and smiling but he started to have depression-like symptoms and went to some very dark places. He had lots of tests and assessments at Huntlyburn for a few weeks. "Philip had a second operation which went well; he recovered quickly but he still wasn’t right. He was happy but he was less able to do the things he liked, such as gardening. He was just content to sit and watch TV."
